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.
