[amsat-bb] "jsssbeyoopi This is JAS 2"

["KF4FDJ (Mike in Ft. Myers, FL)" <seven77@xxxxxxxx>]

Fellow ops,

As Jeff, KB2WQM pointed out, there is an excellent opportunity to
introduce hams, scannists, students, and other space aficionados to
communications from space.

Since FO-29 is now in digitalker mode, take your handheld along to the
next club meeting, boy scout meeting, girl scout meeting, or whatever,
and demonstrate how easy it is to receive signals from space.

Listen for the signal on 435.910 +/- for doppler, and open some doors
for others to join our ranks, and join in our fun.

I am able to hear the signal quite well on my FT50R out in the yard!

This is duck soup!

73, Mike
