[amsat-bb] Satellite Demo at McKinney Amateur Radio Club meeting

[Mac A. Cody]

All,

I will be giving a presentation on FM satellite operations at the McKinney
(Texas) Amateur Radio Club (MARC) monthly meeting this Tuesday evening,
starting at 7:00PM (00:00 UTC).  According to the predictions, LILACSAT-2
will be the only FM satellite passing by during that hour, so I am going
to attempt to have a live demonstration.  The local AOS will be 00:11:35 
UTC,
May 15th (7:11 PM Central Daylight Time, May 14th).  According to the AMSAT
Live OSCAR Satellite Status Page, LILACSAT-2 appears to have been active on
early Wednesday (UTC) last week.  That is no guarantee, though that it will
happen this week.  I will be calling during the pass of LILACSAT-2, so I
hope that someone will be there to have a QSO.  Thanks in advance!

73,

Mac Cody / AE5PH
