[amsat-bb] ND9M/MM - Sat Ops

[Clary, James T, Civilian]

I expect to be QRV on AO7 tomorrow morning at 21/1653Z and will try to
be in the 145.950-955 range. CW will be the primary mode, but I should
be able to switch to SSB if needed. My QTH should be in or near grid
AM42.

 

FO29 looks good at 21/0209Z, but that's during the business hours. If
nothing's going on that needs tending to, I'll look to be on
435.850-855. VO52 looks to provide a window common with the western
states and VE7 at around 22/0605Z. I'll be in the 145.900-905 range.
We'll probably be in or near AM52 at that point.

 

All that said, we're expecting to get some sea swells tomorrow and the
next day. These would rock the ship side to side pretty well if they
occur, which is likely. If it's only the swells and not bad weather,
then my op sked should be OK though.

 

73,
