[amsat-bb] Re: AO-51 Field Day Mode

[Bruce]

remember... although arrl and amsat rules are similar, they are not  
identical. for amsat field day, you may make one contact on each  
single channel transponder. if both transponders are turned on for a  
particular satellite on field day, you can make one contact on each.
