What a great story, thanks so much for sharing this. What an awesome
concept, a ham radio bucket list... I need to write one...
Oh yeah, I take issue with just one comment, I wasted 35+ years on HF, HF
is also awesome, and fueled my excitement in Ham radio but in a
different way, so hope
Does anyone have the text of the proposed legislation so we can refer to it
more specifically in our written comments?

Someone asked the question about which satellite projects to support with
donation dollars. Given my $$ investment in my satellite station, I would
also like to step up my donations to support new transponder-based sats.

Wow, I am taken aback by the magnitude of anger and animosity on the lists.
When did a hobby supposed to foster friendly, amateur communication become
such a serious topic in people lives? I personally disagree with this
viewpoint, but it's not important to me that I am willing to insult someone
Thank you for the many great posts in response to my request for an overview
of sats in the pipeline; very helpful info on FunSat, P3E and FOX.
At the end of the day, strong opinions we put in these posts, no-matter how
passionate or convincing they are, aren't being counted by anyone.

I am having a problem hearing the downlink of any SSB satellites on 440.
I've been off the Sats for a couple of years, two or so. I just rebuilt my
station PC and reinstalled all the apps, specifically, SatPC32, and ARSWIN
and my controller to my G-5500 and 12 element 2-meter and 17 element
Ok, thanks gentleman. It didnt even occur to me to check if FO-29 was
actually working since it's been so rock solid for so many years, didnt
even consider it wasn't operational... how does that go, duhhh
Thanks; see you on the other birds... MichaelK3MH

Trying to get my station back on the air, challenging when I am not sure
which bird is working and when.
It is now 22:25UTC, trying to get on AO-51, looks like it is down also, from

My vote, SSB pre-amps, outstanding, although agreeably expensive, but well
worth the cost hands down; my MFJ pre-amp didnt hold up as it felt quite
cheap. The other advantage of the SSB is that the power requirement is very
low, which means it is compatible with ICOM's amps and will be
Yeah, I have a very similar set up and happy to send you mine. I am just
trying to get mine back on the air after storm damage. If I recall
correctly, I have a 12' cross pole with a horizontally polarized yagis at
each end, each, 20' boom's one 12 ele 144mhzx and the other 17 ele 440. 2

what they are doing fix it, and $100 in
today's world isn't a lot of money.
