Audio Amsat News Service Bulletins Available on Echolink

I have recorded this week's Amsat News Service bulletins and 
placed them on the Amsat Echolink Conference Server. Echolink 
users can visit the AMSAT conference and listen to the audio 
with the ".play" command. A list of all the bulletins
is available with the ".list" command. Don't forget the
leading period for commands. Use ".help" for help.

This is intended not so much for the regular AMSAT crowd
as for the amateur who just happens to join the AMSAT
conference. Comments, criticism and feedback would be 
appreciated. Please send your comments, suggestions, and 
flames to my email address above.

In addition, if you would be interested in being an announcer
yourself, then email me or Paul KB5MU.

For those of you who have no idea what this Echolink thing 
is all about, EchoLink is software which allows Amateur Radio 
stations to communicate with one another over the Internet, 
using voice-over-IP (VoIP) technology. You connect speakers
and a microphone to your computer, connect your computer
to the Internet, run the Echolink software and talk to other
amateurs around the world. Some of them are on computers
and some of them are on their radios or repeaters. Echolink 
access is only available to licensed amateur radio operators.

You can find a list of frequently asked questions about
Echolink and the answers to those questions at

More information specifically on Amsat's Echolink
conference is available at:

If you aren't already on Echolink, then you can get the
software, get more information and register for access
to Echolink from their home page at:
