We plan to work as many of the passes in the attached schedule as possible from the AMSAT Demo Area at Dayton Hamvention this weekend, 14-16 May 2010. The times shown are in UTC. Please note that a few of these passes are just before or just after Dayton Hamvention's posted hours. AO-51 will be in Mode V/S for this weekend and we will attempt to work as many of these marginal passes as possible. There is a very low elevation pass of HO-68 on Friday evening during the AMSAT/TAPR Banquet that we may try to work from the Banquet Area. It has very good European coverage. Other passes of HO-68 in FM mode will have the NW portion of Europe in the early part of the pass. All of North America and part of South America will be in the footprint later in the passes. We hope to work you on the "birds."
If you are attending Dayton, please come by the AMSAT Demo Area for an "Eyeball QSO" and a look at the hardware and other demonstrations. 73 - Keith, W5IU
