[amsat-bb] thanks for qso at swapfest

["Bruce Paige" <kk5do@xxxxxxxxx>]

thanks to all those who attempted to contact me at the clarc swapfest on ao-
27 at 1500z. we were about 30 feet from a mobile home that had their 
generator running so it created some unwanted noise. but i did work a few 
stations. gerry, k5oe was out in his truck in the street and heard a bunch 
more than i did. allen, n5afv was in another part of the parking lot but 
watched instead of jamming up the satellite (thanks). 

there were about a dozen people watching the demonstration, one with a 
video camera. one had an antenna that looked identical to the pryme al-800 
that is being sold by another company. (bet it was made by the same 
manufacturer).
