[amsat-bb] AMICALSAT Award

[Jean Marc Momple]

Good Evening,

Address amsatf at amsat-f.org <mailto:amsatf at amsat-f.org> bounce back presently, probably not yet activated.

Nice initiative from AMSAT-FR to motivate us to send TLM. Bravo Messieurs.

I am already sending via Satnogs and this will surely motivate me further to do so in future.

All the best to Amicalsat, strong signal this side.
