[amsat-bb] DM54/DM55 on Saturday (8 August)

[Patrick STODDARD (WD9EWK/VA7EWK)]

Hi!

I will drive to eastern Arizona for the afternoon/early evening
of Saturday, 8 August 2009, and plan to work FM satellite passes
from the DM54/DM55 grid boundary in Apache County.  I should be 
able to work AO-27 passes at 2046 and 2227 UTC, an AO-51 pass at
0041 UTC, and an SO-50 pass at 0134 UTC.  Local surroundings will
determine if I can work an earlier AO-51 pass at 2306 UTC.  If I
feel like staying out there into the evening, and if the western
view from there is not obstructed with lots of hills and mountains,
I *might* work the later AO-51 and SO-50 passes from there.  No
guarantees for those passes (AO-51 @ 0223 UTC, SO-50 @ 0315 UTC).

As with other recent road trips, there is no need to first send me
a QSL card to get one for a DM54/DM55 QSO.  Please e-mail me 
directly with QSO details, and - if you're in the log - I will send
a card your way.  For those who worked me last month on my 3-state
14-grid road trip, I will hold off mailing those cards out until
next week.  This will let me put a DM54/DM55 QSL card in the same
envelope, if I work you out there on Saturday.  

73!
