The Arrow antenna will be a good choice. The very first contact I made after
receiving my Arrow antenna was with Col. Doug Wheelock aboard the ISS on
July 14, 2010. I was using a Kenwood Th-F6a HT @ 5w output with my new Arrow
II.
The Arrow is not the only choice, but I think many will agree tha

I am a relatively new ham (1.5 months) and I have caught the satellite
bug. I own a Kenwood TH-D72A which from reading this list and some
others is a great little HT to operate satellites.
The issue is an antenna. I live in an antenna restricted area so I am
not sure what to do.

Thanks to all who worked on this great bird!
One of the most fun to operate and you can always count on good old VO-52 to be
on when its over you.
Lets hope it continues!

Hi Mani, VU2WMY
I agree with you and in my opinion VO-52 is actually the best satellite
with a linear transponder, no changes in mode of operation, always ON
operating in all orbits with a great signal,very sensitive,with an AGC
working very well and easy to operate.
Actually VO-52 is the only sat
Dear friends
It's indeed a great achievement. No doubt, Alan Shepard's flight 50
years ago have paved the way for what United States is today in the
area of manned missions. His contribution has not only helped the US,
but the World as a whole in exploring the frontiers of space for the

Dear Friends,
It gives us great pleasure and satisfaction to say that 'HAMSAT-VO 52'
has completed 6 years of successful operation in orbit. HAMSAT was
launched on 5th May 2005 aboard PSLV-C6 from Sriharikotta.
The transponder and the beacon on-board were never been off the air,

There is a tremendous amount to learn right now if you are one who organizes or
promotes events.

were held covering every continent, school lesson plans established, and

Hi there.
Can anyone tell me if so67 is back on air for amateur use yet. I read on the
http://www.amsatsa.org.za/ site
that it's getting used for other mean's.
"Amateur Radio operation on SO67 will be suspended from 18 April for a period
to allow SunSpace to carry out tests on world-wide basis
Yup,
Took a six iron head and attached it to a tool handle. He took three shots,
shanked the first two but according to Sheppard the third went "Miles &
Miles".

I think it's a shame we don't have an Astronauts Day to observe in the US. So
many gave so much to this effort.
I suggested this to the governor of my state years ago, and I never received a
reply. So strange considering Florida is where all of the US manned flights
have originated from.
