I was still preparing my station... I was busy being happy about my MIR packet contact... (I made the ANS one time) I still have a couple K5GNA downconverters... with the filter kits (as yet uninstalled) If we could get another in orbit I could use this stuff again... Ive been waiting a long time... Im sorta giving up on the project.. .so much $ and no results.. we really could use a HEO sat... I would be back.. I still show the kids the keps and the signs.. but with only 5 minutes to make a contact amongst a crowd im just shoved out of the way.. . Will we ever see another HEO sat?? 73's Chris KC2BBU _______________________________________________ Sent via [email protected]. Opinions expressed are those of the author. Not an AMSAT-NA member?
