Basically funding is needed for the P3E and P5A launches I think it's something
like $10-15 million. I'm sure if they get that money it'll be prominently
displayed on the site.

Thanks John,
We are having problems getting the satellite through eclipse with the
transmitter on. Further reports are appreciated for both the 435.300 and
.150 transmitters.

Hi I have some California down converter #130016 I would like to sale. When
AO-40 was working I sold and used them myself.
I do not have eyes to set them up anymore.
I am selling them for $10 each + Shipping.
I do have Pay Pal
My e-mail is w...@bak.rr.comPhone 661 829 5759 for more
Thanks for reading this post. The following have become excess to my
needs and are for sale:
1) KLM 22-element CP, switchable polarization - this antenna was
recently brought off my tower after more than 10-years of great
service. I have pictures of this antenna including several with my MFJ
Technically, it is really 200 per cent to AMSAT - because our donation will
get DOUBLED by DARA!
Are you going to let that guy in So. Cal. walk away with these??
I've been relegated to a nameless, So. CA resident moniker???
... He's already got that bracket thingy from AO-40 (sobsob).?
Hi group,
I just listened for the pass with AOS here at 1557 UTC.
Nothing on either of the transmitters.
Hope you had a nice time at Dayton.

Hi,
I monitored the UK 1558z pass and also tried to access AO-51 (with
67 hz tone of course)
Nothing heard and no response to my attempts.

Folks,
In an effort to redecorate, I am having a shack clearance at the moment. As
you can imagine there's a lot of amateur satellite related equipment up for
grabs that's been accumulated, for example:
Tonna 2m 70cm crossed yagis (new)
Yaesu G-5500 (used inside only for LVB Tracker testing
So I'm considering putting together something that can work AO-40 and
similar satellites, but everywhere I look says you need 2 radios or full
duplex. Never really said why so I'm curious why its required to have 2
radios (which just seems more complex expensive) or full duplex
to operate on this

This will be my final push for selling these stamps.
In the spirit of the Dayton $5000 challenge I am offering on Ebay my AMSAT
framed stamps. 100% of the proceeds go to AMSAT. I expect nothing less than a
spirited bidding battle for these stamps. Remember we deal with rocket
science,
H-IIA Launch was pstponed in after today.

Well, keep in mind that DEMI's strength is in transverters, and what is
hard to obtain for satellite operation from most common-place existing

Full duplex transceiver?
Back in the dim dawn of history, there used to be those who constructed
transmitters that were separate from receivers. Although constructing
such a thing is beyond me, I would like to see someone create a device
that was intended to feed the input of an upconverter.

Yesterday I downloaded and installed the latest version of Erich's
wonderful program on a newer PC, XP.
I've been using an older version of his excellent program for as many
years as it has been in existence.
I made a couple of contacts on the latest version today, and was
surprised when an
