I read journals on a variety of electronic devices. Because of the range of
screen sizes and resolutions, you really need a format that can dynamically
adapt to the size and resolution of whatever the user has.

I'd recommend not using PDF at all, but going to a native web page that can
adapt to whatever screens people are using.

There is nothing more frustrating than trying to read a PDF on a mobile
phone...

About ARISS:

?

Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) is a cooperative
venture of international amateur radio societies and the space agencies that
support the International Space Station (ISS).? In the United States,
sponsors are the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT), the American
Radio Relay League (ARRL), the ISS National Lab and National Aeronautics and
Space Administration (NASA). The primary goal of ARISS is to promote
exploration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEAM)
topics by organizing scheduled contacts via amateur radio between crew
members aboard the ISS and students in classrooms or public forms. Before
and during these radio contacts, students, educators, parents, and
communities learn about space, space technologies, and amateur radio. For
more information, see www.ariss.org.

QRZ does not have a SAT propagation mode. I seem to recall that I have had
some successful confirmations by simply entering FM mode and just the uplink
frequency. But then this means one would have to log separately to LoTW via
TQSL in order to get credit for a satellite qso.

Oops! Sorry Jerry, just saw your email. Didn?t mean to be redundant. It sure
would be nice if the powers that be at QRZ would take us satellite operators
into consideration. I?m wondering if one is working split frequency on HF
the same problem occurs?
