[amsat-bb] Rant about Mentoring new Satellite Operators

[Brian Wilkins KO4AQF]

OP - please don’t leave!

I believe mentors do exist. Some that come to mind are WD9EWK, KK4YEL,
KO4MA, NR0Q, KC7JPC, W3ARD, N4DCW, KE8FZT, N5LEX, KE9AJ, W9TWJ and a bunch
others who have helped ME since getting started in December 2019.
