If you are a EME beginner, contact a mega-station; I suggest W5UN. He
has something like 800 elements total in multi yagis, and
polarizations. For beginners, unless you have been doing lots of weak
signal tropo, that is your best bet for 1st EME contact. And for
certain, get on the moon-net mail list. Good luck. ~Larry W7IN

The AMSAT board is not the best place for info about EME. Try Moon Net,

You can find info for EME beginners at:

This is a good weekend for EME, but do not send at 145.00 and do not send
PSK31. The correct mode is JT65B, and most stations will be between 144.10 and
144.16.

Is this a good time for EME comm. ? Moon seems right
for it , but never tried it . Is psk31 possible ? What
freq. ? Orbitron says 145.000 ? Going to send cq throughout
the day via PSK 31 on 145.000. Maybe a waste of time .
