Hello Willmar, Meeker Co. & Crow River Club Members,

I am putting the word out for a new ham radio Satellite Facebook Group. My friend W8CPT, Don and myself have started to organizing this group together.

I have invited some of you directly already. We also will be inviting other hams who we have been heard on the satellites via their emails posted on QRZ to get things rolling.

This message is for the the rest of you for a?place to discuss more about the ham radio satellite topic. And for those who would?might like to possibly try working other hams stations through some of the FM satellites. Mainly the easiest satellite to use is the International Space Station.

Here is the link for those of you that are on Facebook. We are looking forward in you in joining us there.?

I will also make the note here that….? All of you can do this right now with the equipment you already have!?

You can start with a simple 5/8th wave dual band mag mount antenna with a dual band vhf/uhf radio. The freqs are: 145.990 FM with a tone of 67.0 Hz for the uplink. And listen starting at 437.810 to 437.790 as it flys over you. Generally from the west towards the east.

Looking forward in see all of you there!
