V/U operation will now be 145.88/435.150? The web site is showing both that
one and 145.920/435.300 ???

is SOP on AO51 for many, many operators, u

I think that's a great idea, unfortunately I didn't see this in time to
reprogram my ht. Maybe that's the answer, changing the uplink frequency at
random and posting that change here. I would have loved to be able to work
ZF2AE today, but with an ht it was impossible.

Field Day isn't far off, and perhaps it's not too early to start reminding
people that the "one contact per FM satellite" rule means just that:
ONE contact.
Not "only one LOGGED contact

I cannot think of a worse idea.
The "best available information" should ALWAYS be on the Control Ops pages -
the only pages that are maintained by those who are in control of the

Well ok, then what is the answer? AO-51 used to be fun to work, but with the
high power stations, jammers, and everyone talking over everyone else, it's
no longer fun.
With the frequency change this evenings pass was very enjoyable.
