Here's something to think about. All through the Mercury, Gemini, Apollo
and Space shuttle programs (most of the space shuttle program) there was
never additional or off pad lightning protection. The support structure was
the lightning rod and with many points of contact with the wet sandy soi

A huge "thank you" to whoever turbocharged the pass predictor on
amsat.org's web site, which I depend on for pass information.
Requesting the next 50 passes of a given sat used to take about 20
seconds to process. Now it returns in about one second!
To the person(s) responsible for this upgrade:
According to Roscosmos, the ISS altitude will be raised 19.2 km tomorrow.
Until updated Keps are available from Space Track, there will be a slippage
in predictions of _approximately_ 6 minutes per day!

Good Afternoon,
I have a Yaesu G-5400B Controller with a couple of semi stripped set screw.
I am wondering if someone has replacement terminal strips. Has anyone one
come up with a decent replacement scheme?

Hello Will,
I would consider re-tapping to the next size larger with a SAE thread,
then add SAE machine screws or..
solder directly to the stripped terminal after removing the metric
machine screw.
I infrequently use these terminals, rather I have a short pigtail with a
connector.

And a furthur two big boosts set for the 15th June @ 15:05 and 19:09hrs utc.
Hang on to your hats.
