Hello, Pat and other AMSATers!
We are running a summer program for Brazilian exchange students until July 18th. Back in 2014, you visited Capitol College to convey cool AMSAT and ham wisdom to our students. We'd love to set up a visit with our 29 visiting students, if feasible. 3 of them already took the Technician's class exam and got their US ham licenses last month, and several of them are working on APRS beacons and satellite SDR and other projects. We're also building a networked SatNOGs antenna to talk to satellites, and are nearly done that project.
Would any of you be available to visit and talk with them? We changed our name (now 'Capitol Technology University') but we're still right up the road from GSFC, in Laurel, on 11301 Springfield Rd.
Hopefully, Sandy
