[amsat-bb] AMSAT-BB Digest, Vol 13, Issue 218

[Mac A. Cody]

One alternative for scoring could be to adopt the approach used for
Winter Field Day.  For Winter Field Day, a station can net a 1500-point
bonus for one satellite QSO.  There are no additional points for
subsequent QSOs.  Not saying that 1500 points would be awarded for
an ARRL Field Day satellite QSO, but more than 100 points.
