AMSAT News Service Bulletin 131.04 From AMSAT HQ
SILVER SPRING, MD. May 11, 2003
To All RADIO AMATEURS
BID: $ANS-131.04
The recent, May 4, 2003, annual AMSAT-DC Meeting and Space Seminar was a
great
success. If you have never attended one of the meetings, you have really
been
missing a lot. There were eight talks, several very interesting Show 'n'
Tells
and time to network.
Steve, KS1G, brought in his very portable AO-40 and LEO satellite station;
Gil,
N3RZN, demonstrated some innovative software for image display; Paul, W4RI,
spoke
on efforts to protect and retain our microwave bands; Art, N3OY, shared his
work
on a homebrew Nova controller for radios and rotators, Ed, N2EC, showed
pictures
of the CARAsat Field Day 2002 efforts; Rick, W2GPS, presented his upcoming
Dayton
talk on ECHO (AO-E); John, W3HMS, talked about his work on a portable 24 GHz
AO-40
receiving system, and I gave a status report on efforts to use WAAS GPS
signals for
frequency stabilization.
The meeting started at 1:00 P.M. and broke up around 7:00 P.M. More details
