Clayton....
Thanks for sharing with the multitude so the great example
can be a lesson for all.
There are quite a few operators now using the SATs that were
newbies at one time and have turned out to be fine seasoned
and experienced users. I could post an impressive list of them,
but I'd be afraid to leave some folks out.

This morning I heard a fun QSO on AO-92. It was AE0BB's first satellite 

contact with K9EI.


A couple of things I want to point out:


1. Even though there were multiple users on the bird, everyone patiently 

stood by to allow the contact to go through. Normally timing is very 

fast on FM birds. This was a nice break!


2. Michael K9EI was patient and courteous with the new operator. It was 

a great model of how to welcome and encourage others.


Here's a short recording of the QSO:
