To: ham-space@ucsd.edu I have heard there are two amateur satellites that work entirely on the low- bands (10 and 15 meters?). I would appreciate it if someone would let me know which satellites and what the passbands are. If there is an archive somewhere with this info, a pointer would be appreciated.

I never saw my QSO# come across my screen, but the Shuttle ovbiously tried to reply to my connect request. Is this enough to qualify for a QSL card? -- Brad A.
