ARRL instructor and AMSAT-NA Ambassador Clint Bradford, K6LCS, 
will be presenting his "Working Amateur Satellites With Your HT” 
session at the Saturday, August 15, 2020 meeting of the Team Radio 
GA in southeast Georgia. The session will begin at 9AM Georgia time. 

Team Radio GA (TRGA) is a growing ARES / EmComm group, whose 
region covers the ARRL’s District 8 in Georgia. Led by Jerome Erickson 
KK1JE, TRGA was featured in the July, 2020 issue of the ARRL Georgia 
Section’s newsletter, “Georgia on My Mind.”

The groups Jerome has organized focus on digital and emergency 
communications. Refreshingly, Jerome told the newsletter editor, “I 
believe that the privilege to operate on the many frequencies we are 
granted we should make an effort to give back to our communities 
through radio communications.”

Clint K6LCS has made it his mission in his amateur radio life to show 
hams that they really can work a few FM voice satellites with equipment 
they probably already own. To that end, he has given his presentation 
more than 100 times to audiences who genuinely desire to expand their 
ham experience - to clubs, conventions, and hamfests in North America 
and Canada. 

An attendee of Clint’s session at the club a couple years ago wrote:

"K6LCS gave a fantastic presentation on amateur satellites. 
It was most informative and entertaining. Clint's passion 
for the subject was evident, and I would imagine that the 
club members individually and or in a group will be eager 
to try satellite contacts in the near future.

“We will be using Zoom Video Communications to conduct our session,”
Clint advises. “I would much rather be in a room, LIVE, with my audience, 
but it’s cheaper with Zoom than air fare to Savannah's International Airport … “

Clint always welcomes questions before his presentations. Leave him a
