[amsat-bb] 13 Colonies Special Event

[jeff griffin]

Hi Dave, if we can get the 13 Colonies event back to where it was when we
had a solid 13 colony precipitation on the sats it will become a 'rare grid
level event' on the FM birds. I remember working 24 stations on a single
AO-27 pass from Delaware in 2012 and nobody complained! Hang in there,
better 13 colony things are coming...

I just finished listening to a SO-50 which I was going to try to work as
K2A if I could get in. I've only worked FM birds a couple of times before
and I remember it being busy but that was just stupid. I'll either try off
hours or stick to linear sats. Not to start something but man I hope we can
get some higher orbit linear satellites again :-(
