Are you an AMSAT Area Coordinator? Are you looking for an AMSAT Area
Coordinator? Would you like to become an AMSAT Area Coordinator?

If you answered yes any of these questions, then we are ready to help
you. I have just placed (with the list maintained by Patrick, WD9EWK)
the current list of AMSAT Area Coordinators on the amsat.org webpage.
You can peruse it at your leisure and if you find someone close to you
that you would like to get some help from, you can drop that Area
Coordinator an email at his callsign @ amsat.org

If you see a need for a correction or addition, please drop an email to
Patrick, WD9EWK, at his amsat.org email address.

Oh, where can you actually find the list? http://www.amsat.org then
click on AMSAT in the menu bar and you will see Area Coordinators.

Thanks for that table Clayton.

I was able to work CY9C at 21:08 on AO7.  They had a great signal and fine
operator on the mic.

Hoi Paul,

Last weekend i heard the same "selfishness" on this site off the ocean. I
special event station was activating a lighthouse with a special /p call,
but he couldn't come thru on SO-50/AO-85. Some stupid stations didn't even
listen, just calling and calling cq, while others are trying to finish a
contact. And they just need to make a contact on EVERY pass with the same
stations, * times/day, rather then having a new square/station/dxcc/special
event in the log. Why? To have 1000 contacts in the logbook, but only with 5
or so different stations? I don't understand what's the fun for them,on
doing something like that.

So don't worry, it happens also on EU passes,hi.

Best 73's

At some point, naming names is required:

K4FEG is now on his third QSO for the pass, and fifth overall on FO-29.

Such selfishness is a poor reflection on a person's character.

Some of you may have noticed on @xxxxxxx Twitter feed that bad weather
forced them offline in the middle of the night between 0200-0700 UTC
today. It has been raining heavily with strong wind gusts. When
weather clears, they expect to get back online and operate.

I would recommend if you aren't in the log yet, listen on all
available passes with mutual footprint. Their six digit gridsquare is
FN97wf.

Clayton,

Do you know if satellite QSOs are reflected in the 2m ClubLog results? If
so, it's easy to see if your station is in the log and know that those
"insurance" contacts are unnecessary. (As of yesterday, my satellite QSO was
not shown in ClubLog. But I know it takes awhile, especially if weather has
everything shut down.)

Hi Mark!

I was searching for call signs of satellite operators who have
worked CY9C, going back to the first two stations that worked
them (2E0SQL, KB1PVH) as reported via Twitter. I don't see those
calls in the log. For some satellite operators, I only saw HF QSOs
listed in the log (i.e., N8HM shows up for 30m CW). I did not expect
anything for my call, since as of now (1430 UTC) the log was only
updated through 1447 UTC yesterday, and I worked them on AO-7
at 2106 UTC yesterday.

I'm not worrying about the log search. Seems like satellite QSOs
don't show up in these log searches, at least not right away, since
the log records need to have the additional fields inserted to
indicate a satellite QSO. As Clayton said, if you still need a
CY9C in your satellite log, it's time to start looking at any passes
that cover both you and them. Don't just rely on seeing AMSAT-BB
posts or Twitter to plan your passes.

73!

The Sat contacts might need to be re-entered depending on the logging
software used. My NJ radio club SJDXA  was the QSL manager for among others
K1N. The log entries for Navassa weren't properly put in the log till after
the DXPedition was over. I offered to enter them , but N2OO took care of it,
all 27 of them. So it might be awhile before they show up in club log....

I have spoken to WW2DX who is aware of the need for west coast USA
coverage.  He will attempt to work the 1715 UTC pass.

Hmmm, I just checked clublog for K1N and the 2m entries never made it to
clublog. 2M doesn't even show up as a possible contact. They all made it to
LoTW though, and I also got a card. So I'm not sure on what's happening here
with the log, I would still bet the logging software might not be sat
contact friendly. I know I'm good on FO-29 as I'm on one of Clayton's
recordings...   :-)

software used. My NJ radio club SJDXA  was the QSL manager for among others
K1N. The log entries for Navassa weren't properly put in the log till after
the DXPedition was over. I offered to enter them , but N2OO took care of it,
all 27 of them. So it might be awhile before they show up in club log....

Hi Mark!

I was searching for call signs of satellite operators who have
worked CY9C, going back to the first two stations that worked
them (2E0SQL, KB1PVH) as reported via Twitter. I don't see those
calls in the log. For some satellite operators, I only saw HF QSOs
listed in the log (i.e., N8HM shows up for 30m CW). I did not expect
anything for my call, since as of now (1430 UTC) the log was only
updated through 1447 UTC yesterday, and I worked them on AO-7
at 2106 UTC yesterday.

I'm not worrying about the log search. Seems like satellite QSOs
don't show up in these log searches, at least not right away, since
the log records need to have the additional fields inserted to
indicate a satellite QSO. As Clayton said, if you still need a
CY9C in your satellite log, it's time to start looking at any passes
that cover both you and them. Don't just rely on seeing AMSAT-BB
posts or Twitter to plan your passes.

73!

They are in Club Log as K1N/SAT.

But, yes, there aren't any expedition logging packages that I'm aware
of that are satellite friendly.

By the way, a recent DXKeeper upgrade cemented it's status as the best
logging software for satellite QSOs. Nothing comes close for entering
QSOs or tracking satellite award progress,
