And it's also a good thing it's not a HEO. 

If you experience a pass lasting more than 4 hours.

[amsat-bb] LA4FPA/p Vigra Island JP32BM

2010-07-23 Thread John Papay
Erling, LA4FPA/p, plans to be on HO-68 on 24 July
beginning at 1405 UTC, when it is scheduled to turn
on, all the way to his LOS at around 1416 UTC.  The
footprint will cover northeastern US and eastern Canada.
HO-68 is in the FM mode and with its strong signal, qso's
should be possible.  Erling was on the AO-7 pass today but
there were not many takers in North America.  He did work
WC7V which was his longest distance ever on AO-7.

Look for Erling on AO-7 on Sunday when it is back in Mode B.

[amsat-bb] LA4FPA/p JP32BM

2010-07-23 Thread John Papay
Erling, LA4FPA/p, is on Vigra Island, JP32BM for
a holiday.  He will be on the 2014 UTC pass of AO-7
today, 23 July.  AO-7 is in Mode B and this is an
excellent pass for the Northeastern/Northern USA and
Canada.  Here's a great chance to add Norway to your
list of countries.  Keep it short so everyone has a
chance to work him.

73,

be RECEIVED at the AMSAT office by the close of business on September 15th.
Now is a good time to review the biographical information, ask questions,

opportunity to stand for election, is your best opportunity to influence the
direction of our organization.
