[amsat-bb] made it on AO-51

["Greg Wycoff" <GREGWYCOFF@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

finally, made it on AO-51 west pass for me here in EM17 Kansas 18:00utc
8/1/4
but still alot of dead time, not a very productive satellite at this time.
it will be a hard sell to get any new hams to try it out. If it is not going
to be easy to access then it will be hard to gain any new amsat members.

thought it was AMSAT goal to make AO-51 a "easy sat."

guest will be off for awhile and let others give it a try, maybe catch the
late night passes.
