Great news, I was hoping the amateur operation might continue despite the 
demise of the main payload.

Hi Bill  
Here is the url
http://www.ntia.doc.gov/page/frequency-assignment-subcommittee-fas

Some years back I got an experimental license for non sat use. Several
universitys have obtained sat license this way. They are assigned on the
same frequency as the ham sats and I don't know if they coordinate with the
IRAU. The experimental license allows the organizations to make money .

Hi!

Congratulations to John Papay K8YSE for reaching 1005 
confirmed grids for his satellite VUCC award! John has been 
on the birds for the past few years, missing out on the days 
of HEO satellites, yet he has spent many days - and nights - 
chasing stations to add to his log. His Cleveland QTH has a 
very capable satellite station, which he has continually 
improved over the years. If he is in the footprint, he has 
been able to work anyone he hears. In fact, he has not 
stopped in his quest to log more satellite QSOs and grids 
to this day, as he tries to work Yuri UT1FG/MM wherever 
he happens to be sailing right now.  With the wet-grid 
operators like Yuri and Jim ND9M/MM, coupled with others 
going to other dry places that aren#39;t normally heard on the 
birds, who knows how many more grids John can add to his 
satellite log.

Along with his home station, he has also worked from many
locations away from home to help the rest of us get more
QSOs and grids in our logs. In particular, his summer 2010
road trip around Lake Superior with a fully-capable satellite
station in the back of his truck.  In 2009, he helped a bunch
of us with a trip to the rarely-heard state of Delaware.  His
Delaware QSL card was the last card I needed to file for my
satellite WAS award. He has also worked from other 
locations to help put rare grids on the birds over the past
few years.

Good luck on getting many more grids, John. 73!

[amsat-bb] SSB Birds fm Hawaii

2012-02-05 Thread Robert Smith
Aloha All de NH7WN

I have been working the FM birds for years and now have the capability to QSO
via AO7 and other SSB sats.  As a newbie I am still learning how to find 
myself,
along with overcoming the other challenges of a somewhat more difficult art.

It has been a desire of mine to work longer distances from here in Hawaii and 
of 
course the SSB birds offer that opportunity. As fate would have it however, I 
am in 
a valley with ridges of 20 degs. elevation east and west of me. Still,  It 
appears that I 
may be able to work as far east as Nebraska,  and Japan remains a remote 
possibility. 

Eventually I hope to be mobile in order to solve the above problem but in the 
mean
time, I would welcome any and all QSO opportunities. I try to be on the air 
during the
afternoons and evenings in Hawaii.  So, if you happen to hear an operator who 
appears
to be in the embryonic stages of SSB ops, please give me a call and as 
always, all tips gracefully accepted. Mahalo and 73.

Respectfully,
robert, NH7WN
Honolulu, Hawaii
