You totally miss the point here. This is MY satellite and if I want to work YOU on that pass I will do WHATEVER it takes. I usually run 100W up to AO-51 anyways to make sure everybody hears ME! If that's not sufficient, ok .. let's bring the 1KW brick. No problem. The world is ending, we all know that already so I need to make sure that I get all the grids right now and here. The time YOU spent typing this email you could've already gotten in your friggin car and driven out to a new one for ME to work you. Clayton, Clayton .. we have to work on this slacker attitude of yours. Tsts ... Just my $23 73 Mike K5TRI p.s.: For the ironically challenged, this was irony. I don't run 1KW up to any satellite as everybody knows it's not enough. p.p.s.: Ups, I did it again :) _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.
