[amsat-bb] Re: A viable FD satellite operation

Yes, ironically it came in the mail today.

I wish they had just skipped the FM-LEO aspect. They will just be plain ugly on Field Day and not show this aspect of the hobby in a good light.

The last year AO-40 was available for Field Day, I was AMSAT FD #10, working AO-40 only, single op, with no computer assist. I'm out of practice. :-)

There's also an article in the June QST which answered a lot of my questions about setting up for and operating sats on Field Day.
