[amsat-bb] LUSAT 30 YEARS

[John Geiger]

Congratulations on your anniversary and successful satellite!  UO-14 was
the very first satellite I made a QSO through, back in 2002. That was a
great sat, unfortunately we lost it a couple of years after that.  Never
would have guessed that UO-14 would lead me into 18 years of satellite
operating with a satellite  VUCC and satellite WAS!
