[amsat-bb] ARRL Field Day

What Sean says, goes.  For ARRL purposes, then, all satellites are lumped together as one band.  Not for AMSAT FD, though.

Hi all-


ARRL Field Day rules lump all satellites together as a single band: "Satellite."


While you are limited to one QSO on the FM satellites, there is no limit to the number of QSOs you can make on transponder sats.

Jeff and Paul,





The way I read ARRL FD rule 7.3.7, each satellite is a separate "band," though you can make only one QSO on each FM satellite (unlimited on non-FM sats).  Only one 100-point bonus, though.







Look for me from WE7GV on FO-29 and possibly AO-7.
