I thought that the Field Day rules (both ARRL and AMSAT rules) limited the
number of contacts for each entrant/submission/club to one QSO per satellite.
Was that correct? Would there be any point in a club making, say, 20 contacts
on Field Day? Would additional points be available for a club mak

My take on the field day sats:
Why not some one on the East Coast and some one on the West Coast volunteer to
operate as a net . That way there would not be the 2 way confusion . A net
control could confirm the contacts much faster and get many more contacts. Just
a thought.

Hi!
With all the talk about the possibility of an L-band uplink and/or
S-band downlink on AO-51 since there will be at least 2 other V/U
FM satellites available during Field Day weekend, what about sticking
with the V/U frequency combination but go with something different
for the 2m uplink mode
Wondering why all the hoopla about any of the satellites being in any
mode. AMSAT receives only about 15 entries for field day. The rest
must be doing only demos or making the one bonus contact. With
hundreds of field day stations on the air we should have way more
entries.
