[amsat-bb] Satellite DXCC

[rsoifer1 at aol.com]

Not quite, Paul.  At least eight Satellite DXCCs were earned without using HEO or Mode K.  They were made using AO-6, AO-7 and the RS birds, some of which were slightly higher than AO-6/7.


In the order they were issued, here are the first seven: W2BXA, W2LV, W1NU, G3IOR, WA2CBB, G6RH and W2YY.  All are now SK except for CBB.


The 8th one was mine, although I was slow to collect QSL cards and my certificate is No. 13.


Congrats to John on being the next one!
