If you are a EME beginner, contact a mega-station; I suggest W5UN. He
has something like 800 elements total in multi yagis, and
polarizations. For beginners, unless you have been doing lots of weak
signal tropo, that is your best bet for 1st EME contact. And for
certain, get on the moon-net
The AMSAT board is not the best place for info about EME. Try Moon Net,
register at http://mailman.pe1itr.com/mailman/listinfo/moon-net.
You can find info for EME beginners at:

If you're JT65 capable, monitor http://www.chris.org/cgi-bin/jt65emeA to find
out who's transmitting where.

JT65B is what is commonly used on both 2 meters and 432 MHz, however many
stations use CW as well. In the microwave bands, with a large station, SSB is
possible.
Search for the WSJT program and I'm sure you will find lots of information.
The frequency range commonly used is the lower portion
145.000 is not a good choice of frequency. It is a repeater input frequency.

You can use an old seaman's type of drain hole hint. If the hole is about
1/4" or so, get a piece of string and put a large knot on one end, pass it
through the hole and add another large knot with about an inch or

I tried the same thing with one of my FO432 11 el beams handheld with a bare
FT817 this afternoon. This was right after getting home from the VHF
Conference in Connecticut. I could hear KP4AO very well on JT65 right out of
the speaker. My XYL heard the tones 25 meters away while she was raking

On your computer click start, programs, SatPC32, and it should expand with a

You can find it in your programs list. Click on SatPC32, then select SuM out
of the list.

I agree on the Lunar X Prize,

There are 19 teams so far in the chase,
why do we not contact every one of them with the proposal?
there is 30 million purse there a waiting.
we could even say give us the ride and they can keep the prize

The thing is we have 'discussed' this a FEW times in the past and
the ideas get better each time plus the technical discussion gets
more information input each time.
Maybe this time things will progress beyond the talking and more
into the planning/design phase.

Greetings,
First of all, I appreciate the efforts of the dedicated few of
AMSAT that actually go out and make things happen.
You don't hear "Thank you" often enough.
Being this early in the idea phase, there are a lot of
questions and unknowns. What frequencies to use and
what the link require
We have been discussing building and packaging a system that is
SEPARATE from the rest of the landing craft that would take up weight
and not supply ANY benefit to any mission support.
What if we change that to from just asking for a FREE ride to helping
provide mission specific support ALONG with
station should still be quite affordable.
Just a thought,

I realize this is still very early in the dreaming stage but it would be nice
to start seeing some realistic proposals soon. How about starting with a blank
worksheet that outlines the desirements and requirements. This would give folks
some specifics to address.
