Pete & Bruce, Good to know about the LINEAR birds. The rules are still different, AMSAT will allow one V/U and one V/S contact on AO-51. The ARRL will only allow one contact on AO-51.

Thanks Pete. I am glad that the two minds (ARRL and AMSAT) have become one. 73...bruce ________________________________ From: Peter Portanova <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Sat, June 5, 2010 9:33:07 AM Subject: [amsat-bb] FIELD DAY SCORING Hello, I was in contact with the ARRL, after I read 7.3.7. and 7.3.7.1. in the Field Day Rules. I mentioned to the League that I would like them to point out where in those rules it would prohibit scoring the same call on multiple Linear Satellites. They listened to my point's and agreed that even though the rules refer to satellite contacts as a separate "band" there is nothing in those rules that prohibit the aforementioned scoring. In conclusion Field Day and the AMSAT scoring are now in agreement, have fun. 73's Pete WB2OQQ www.massapequanyweather.com _______________________________________________ Sent via [email protected].
