[amsat-bb] Just an observation

[Stephen DeVience]

"More orbiting bandwidth means more people participating in any way they
want to, be it grid-chasing, DX, or simply chatting casually with an old
or new friend."

Absolutely, and it's a testament to the interest in this part of the
hobby that we are fighting over bandwidth, rather than complaining
that there's no one answering our CQ. It's a good sign!

Also, there is a lot of bandwidth on the APRS satellites (Falconsat-3,
ARISS, NO-84) and the PSK birds (NO-84, NO-104) waiting for more
users. Remember, with APRS you can do more than just send your
position, you can send messages back and forth and have a decent
conversation. So for those tired of the QRM on FM, consider giving
them a try.
