[amsat-bb] Upcoming satellite workshop on Saturday, August 26th

[Matthew Stevens]

I for one am glad that there are doers (like Ruth, WD9EWK, AK4WK, KX9X and many others I know) willing to go out and do demos like this.

The non-doers can stay home and make disparaging comments on the internet if they like, that's not going to help one person become interested in this hobby. However one enthusiastic operator demoing at a radio club meeting just might.

73,

We will be on a few passes throughout the day from EM83, so I’d appreciate if you’d be listening for me and other operators on the FM birds. I’ll be demoing 12:31z SO-50 pass under my own callsign and then plan to help other operators get on the 17:59z AO-85 pass.
