Hi!

I'm trying to put together some data to illustrate how many grids around
North America (including Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean) that
have been active on the satellites in 2015. I asked for this information
on Twitter earlier today, and I'll make the same request here. If you have
operated from grids away from home, please send me the list of grids you
have worked from. Please include your home grid in the list. I would like
to make a map of grids that were available via satellite during 2015, and
possibly scribble an article for the AMSAT Journal as well.

Besides my own activity in 2015, I have lists from the following stations:

AA5PK
KA4H
KX9X
N8HM
NP4JV
W5PFG

I will generate a map based on all submissions I receive, and probably
some other maps based on the lists I receive from other stations. Even if
your list is nothing more than one other grid besides your home grid,
every submission is appreciated.

I am hoping to have this information by 15 January 2016, so I can then make
the maps and write that article about which grids have been on the air
during 2015 before getting too far into 2016.

Thanks in advance, and 73!
