Hi y'all, AMSAT will have a booth at the Tampabay Hamfest coming up on December 4th in Palmetto, Florida. We also will be doing 90 minutes of presentations on satellites and ARISS during a forum on Saturday. Please come by to pick up the latest AMSAT gear, learn about ARISSat-1, FOX, and other projects, make a donation, or join or renew your AMSAT membership.
This year I am going to try something new. For each donation of $25 or more, or each membership or renewal, I will personally provide the parts and help assembling an antenna for operating the satellites. We will be building a version of the CJU antenna in the booth, which is a small but very effective antenna to use with an HT to copy the Mode J satellites. Using the CJU and an HT, and the 2m radio in your car, the Mode J satellites are easy to use. Email me ahead of time for details or to RSVP for this offer. Please forward to any interested parties or lists. 73, Drew KO4MA _______________________________________________ Sent via [email protected]. Opinions expressed are those of the author.
