[amsat-bb] Sierra Vista AZ hamfest on Saturday (5 May)

[Patrick STODDARD (WD9EWK/VA7EWK)]

Hi!

I will be at the Cochise Amateur Radio Association's annual Larry
Warren Hamfest on Saturday (5 May) morning in Sierra Vista, Arizona.
This, like most Arizona hamfests, is a half-day event, and I will 
have an AMSAT table there along with on-air satellite demonstrations.
More information about the hamfest is available at:

http://www.k7rdg.org/HamfestFlyer2012.html

It looks like I will have only AO-7 in mode B and VO-52 available 
for the demonstrations Saturday morning.  I will be ready for those 
two satellites with my portable all-mode satellite station.  

After the hamfest, depending on when things wrap up, I am looking 
at paying a quick visit to one or two of the rarely-heard grids
in southeastern Arizona.  Or I might try to work from along I-10
at the Arizona/New Mexico state line.  To see where I'm going, I 
will run APRS as WD9EWK-9 while driving.  You can see my travels 
at (among other places) http://aprs.fi/wd9ewk-9 

If you work WD9EWK on Saturday - at the hamfest, or wherever I stop
after the hamfest - and would like a QSL card to confirm the contact,
please e-mail me the QSO details.  No need to send me a card or SASE
first.  If you're in the log, I will be happy to send you a card.  I
will also upload my Saturday QSOs to Logbook of the World. 

73!
