[amsat-bb] New Alaskans on AO-40

["WL7M" <joe@xxxxxxx>]

Welcome to two new KL7 stations on AO40! I worked KL0WN, John, in Kodiak
Island, and KL1GJ, Rob, in Valdez, Alaska this morning. These gentlemen are
new to AO40. I was thrilled to be the first SSB QSO for John on satellite,
and to meet Rob right after that made my day. 

I'm located in Fritz Creek, Alaska, and I can almost see Kodiak Island from
my QTH. Valdez is about 100 miles to the east, but too many mountains are in
the way for me to see Rob's QTH. 

If you should hear these guys on, be sure to say hello to some of the newer
Alaskan stations on the air on AO40!

73, 
Joe
