[amsat-bb] Cuban special station on Sat (Setback)
Hello Guys As regards T40IARU special station on Satellites. We have not received yet the license to operate using the special call sign. The process has been longer than we expected. We hope receive it in the next hours. If we don’t receive it on time for the operation `s schedule, we will evaluate the possibility of use other licensed call sign. We will tell you about it on the next hours. 73! Hector, CO6CBF *** Genius is one per cent inspiration, and ninety-nine per cent perspiration. -- Thomas A.

[amsat-bb] Cuban special station on Sat (Setback)
It is with a heavy heart! Finally, we did not receive the special license to operate as T40IARU. As alternative solution: We will operate using the each province radio club call sign, but only on SO-50, AO-27 and ISS `s digipeater. 73!

[amsat-bb] CQ Europe
Good Morning Europe! I will be on AO7 Mode B in the morning, trying to work into Europe. I am far enough inland of the US that my footprint into Europe will be brief. I am in EM55aj for anyone who wants to look for me, my AOS will be at approximately 10:18:20UTC. I will be calling CQ Europe if you might be interested in attempting a contact listen for me and drop me an email. 73' all K4FEG EM55aj ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.

[amsat-bb] Re: Use of Amateur Satellite Frequencies by Olympic andParalympic Games
I guess OFCOM doesn't understand that satellite downlinks like AO-27's and SO-50's don't respect international borders, and certainly won't shut down just to accommodate their foolhardy choice of frequencies...
