Field Day 2010 Educational Activity

I will be presenting a brief intro to operating Satellites for the FD educational activity, some time during our on air period at Field Day, Bowdoin Park. We will operate on AO-51 and get 100 bonus points for making one contact. This gets us 100pts for the education activity plus 100pts for the contact. I will have an HT and Arrow Antenna on a tripod. We will need participants and operators to make the contact.

Be sure to visit  AMSAT.org if you have already done so.

If you are an experienced Bird Man or Bird Women and can assist please contact me KC2QFR@arrl.net.
