[amsat-bb] AO-51 Ops Committee

["Andrew Glasbrenner" <glasbrenner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

As you may have seen in the last ANS, I have been asked by Mike Kingery
KE4AZN, AMSAT VP Ops, to take the reins of the AO-51 Ops committee. As part
of the changeover, it is my intent to include a wider range of volunteers to
the group. Some of my other goals include getting the schedule ready earlier
each month, better explaining the reasons behind the choices on each
schedule, and continuing and expanding our support of new innovative modes
and experiments. I would like to ask that any members interested in serving
on the committee send me an email detailing why they would be a good choice
for the job. Typically our job includes taking requests for different modes
from the email list and creating a monthly schedule that agrees with the
times the command station is available, answering emails to the modes list,
supporting special events such as Kids Day and Field Day, and participating
in the different modes to ascertain their usefulness and popularity. My
criteria for interested volunteers is that they are a current member of
AMSAT, are active on AO-51 on a regular basis, have a amsat.org email alias,
and have good email access and time to answer emails. I'd like to have all
the volunteers in place by May. Some of the most urgent short term goals
include articles and information regarding the upcoming Kids Day, and Field
Day. We'll have to hit the ground running on these items.

Thanks and best 73,
Drew Glasbrenner KO4MA
