I can help people with HF stuff, cheap antennas, and am willing to help
troubleshoot problems with rigs.
I believe that one of the pillars of ham radio - construction/
understanding at the burn-your-hand-with-a-soldering-iron level - is
drifting out of ham radio. With Japanese radios which cost so much,
fewer and fewer hams are willing to risk their warranty to service their
own equipment. I would like to see a turn-around here...

AMSAT-NA (the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation in North America)
operates the Internet host AMSAT.ORG to provide for efficient
communications between people interested in the amateur satellite
program. At this time two services are provided: a message remailing
service and a mailing list service.
In the future, an archive of files will be accessible by anonymous
ftp or possibly by email. In the meantime, check the host ucsd.edu
by anonymous ftp for AMSAT-related files. Consult your local guru
for help on using anonymous ftp.
The message remailing service permits users to send each other mail
on the Internet without keeping track of each other's Internet
address. The remailing service allows each user to receive mail sent
to the address callsign@amsat.org, where callsign is that user's
amateur radio callsign, or other unique identifier. Mail sent to
that address will be routed first to the AMSAT.ORG host at UCSD in
San Diego, then remailed from AMSAT.ORG to the network address
specified by the user. In most cases, this process delays the
message by only a very few minutes.
The mailing list service groups subscribers into mailing lists to
receive certain types of messages. There are public mailing lists
available to anyone, and private mailing lists available only to
certain people (for example, AMSAT Board of Directors members or
PACSAT command stations). Currently the following public mailing
lists exist:
ANS AMSAT News Service
This mailing list carries official news releases from
the AMSAT News Service. These messages are posted in
a form suitable for direct posting to a packet radio
BBS system. Each message contains a Bulletin Identifier
(BID), which permits the message to be introduced into
the packet network at many places without resulting in
duplicate bulletins at any BBS. The primary purpose of
this mailing list is to distribute ANS bulletins for
redistribution (via the packet net or on AMSAT voice
nets), but individuals may also subscribe for their own
use. If your local packet BBS doesn't seem to get the
ANS bulletins reliably, you are encouraged to post the
ANS bulletins yourself.
Only authorized AMSAT News Service personnel should
send messages to the ANS mailing list.
AMSAT-BB AMSAT bulletin board
This mailing list carries general AMSAT information.
This information may NOT be suitable in content for
transmission via amateur radio, so automatic reposting
of AMSAT-BB messages to packet radio BBS's is discouraged.
The purpose of this mailing list is to provide a forum
for general discussion of any satellite-related topic.
Anyone may send messages to the AMSAT-BB mailing list.
Simply address your message to amsat-bb@amsat.org, and
it will be automatically forwarded to all subscribers
to the AMSAT-BB mailing list.
Editors of publications should ask permission of the
sender before publishing anything seen in AMSAT-BB
elsewhere, unless the posting was obviously a public
press release. However, posters should realize that
anything posted to AMSAT-BB is essentially public.
KEPS Keplerian Elements mailing list
This mailing list carries official postings of Keplerian
element sets for satellites of interest to radio amateurs.
Like the ANS bulletins, these messages are posted in a
form suitable for direct posting to a packet radio BBS.
Only authorized AMSAT News Service personnel should
send messages to the KEPS mailing list.
NASAINFO NASA related information mailing list
This mailing list contains information about current
and planned NASA space missions. Be forewarned: at times
this mailing list delivers many large messages.
SAREX Shuttle Amateur Radio Experiment mailing list
This mailing list contains information and press releases
pertaining to SAREX missions.
To obtain any of these services, just send a message to the address
listserv@amsat.org
This address may be reached from CompuServe MAIL as:
>INTERNET:listserv@amsat.org
For the moment, the maintenance of the AMSAT.ORG mailing lists and
remailing aliases is done manually. Later, this service will
probably be automated and you will have to follow a strict message
format. For now, you may send requests in free format. They will
usually be processed within a few days. In general, you will not
receive an explicit reply to your request. Be sure you specify:
1. Which mailing list(s) you want to receive
2. Your callsign, if any
3. The Internet address to be used, if different from the
one in your From: header.
You should not send messages about your subscriptions to any of the
mailing lists. Send them to listserv@amsat.org instead. This
includes questions, requests for changes, requests for information
about mailing services, and complaints.
The list of amateurs who may be reached via the message remailing
service may be obtained by requesting the "address book". Note that
the address book as distributed contains only the callsigns of the
available addressees, not their actual Internet addresses. The address
book is updated occasionally, and does not necessarily contain the very
latest information.
You may request to be added to the list, to be deleted from the list,
or to have your Internet address changed on the list. Please include
your callsign if you have one. If you don't have a callsign, that's
OK, but please say so. If you have more than one Internet address
you want to have available on the AMSAT.ORG remailer, you may so
specify. For instance, if you have a regular Internet address and a
CompuServe account, you may appear in the address book as both w1xyz
and w1xyz-cis. Mail sent to w1xyz would go to your Internet address,
and mail sent to w1xyz-cis would go to CompuServe. MCImail accounts
have the form w1xyz-mci, and so on.
You may also subscribe or unsubscribe to any of the public mailing
lists described above. Send a message to listserv@amsat.org,
specifying clearly which mailing list(s) you want to add or drop, and
giving your callsign if you have one. When you subscribe to a
mailing list, you will automatically be added to the remailing
service as well, because the mailing lists are maintained by
callsign. If you have more than one address listed in the remailing
service, please indicate which one(s) you want the mailing list
messages sent to.
Additional mailing lists, public or private, can be set up as needed.

Maintainer of the Universal and Free Listing of Repeaters for Radio Amateurs
This listing with all the data is available for anonymous ftp as:
mipg.upenn.edu:/pub/yee/rptr010.Z
As far as I am aware, all the data is freely redistributable and my
intent is to make sure it stays that way. For this reason, I have
applied the GNU General Public License.
The repeater project will now include repeaters from ALL bands and
is not limited to the US. This reflects the intent to make this
directory universal.
Contributions of data may be made by anonymous ftp to
mipg.upenn.edu:/pub/yee/uploads or via email to yee@mipg.upenn.edu.
The data format has not been changed from the old format so
contributions that you were planning to make (prior to my recent
troubles) are still current and most welcome. This repeater listing
will be of use if people take an active part in making it accurate and
useful.
