Good evening, Thanks to Shane, NV7SW, in Nevada, I have now worked 49 states on the satellites. All that remains is Hawaii, a significant challenge. AO-7 is the only satellite with a footprint that reaches both the DC area and Hawaii; suitable passes generally occur every other day, with maximum elevations of 1-1.5 degrees on both ends.
I can arrange to set up a station that can work AO-7 down to the horizon within the allowable distance from my home QTH under WAS rules, but I need to find someone in Hawaii who can also work AO-7 down to the horizon. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and 73, Paul Stoetzer, N8HM Washington, DC (FM18lv) _______________________________________________ Sent via [email protected].
