Hi All,
Daniel, VO1DZX is operating portable VO2 from Labrador (FO62) until December
31. Daniel reports that bad operating conditions and lack of transportation

I have an inquiry from a gentleman who would like to show the dramatic sight
of a computer-controlled small Yagi tracking a satellite while in a convention
booth - but not necessarily a full-blown Yaesu G-5500.
If I am not making sense, just ask ... (grin)

When you launch WinAOS, you have the opportunity to specify which Keps
file to use. Make sure WinAOS uses the same Source File as SatPC32.

Look back thru the -BB archives... I seem to recall that, a couple of years
ago, someone rigged up a system using an X-10 webcam mount or some such thing.
The az-el mount for a small telescope or remote-controlled security camera
should work, as well. You just have to be able to switch the

There's no problem with flying a receiver, it's Amateur Band transmitters you
can't fly below 7MHz.
In 1973, Explorer 49 was placed in orbit

Q. Can the ISS astronauts see tonight's Geminid meteor shower?
NASA: Yes - but they are orbiting at 250 miles above the Earth, and the meteors
are at about 47 miles. So the astronauts on the ISS would have to look DOWN
towards the Earth to see the meteor shower instead of up.
