- Help!! Need freqs and specs for any satellites workable on HF, and
- on 10M - 2M - 440, as well as modes (CW, FM, SSB, whatever), whether
- they're mirror image, could hit with low ERP, etc.
-
- Sorry for blanket ignorance. Tnx Bob

- Latest RADCOM (RSGB) has review of both of them, and a couple of
- AA&A loops, done by a technically competent reviewer.
-
- He didn't seem to find much difference between AEA and MFJ, but liked
- the faster AEA control box.
-
- Reckoned the VERTICAL loop mounting equalled a butternut multiband
- vertical, found the horizontally mounted loop to be much worse, and need
- height.
-
- Radio Communication, RSGB, July 1994 edition. Found on my doorstep
- when I got home last night... Howzat for timing!
-
- Oh, he wasn't too keen on the AA&A loops wit bolted not welded joints,
- and sliding contact capacitors, not butterfly types.

- MAH>>>>I was talking to the local ARRL VEC coordinator yesterday evening on 2M.
- MAH>>>>He informed me that the FCC is rewriting the software which prints
- MAH>>>>technician licenses to indicate whether or not the technician has
- MAH>>>>passed the code test or not.
-
- MAH>Seems to be working quite well! FINALLY received my ticket which I have
- MAH>been waiting for since February 28, and it says TECH PLUS in the Operator
- MAH>Privileges box.
-
- The new 610 now classifies six classes of licenses - Novice, Technician,
- TECHNICIAN PLUS, General, Advanced, Extra.
-
- As A VE, I received a copy of the new 610 that was to be used as of last
- March 1. The new class will now be printed on the license for those that
- have code credit!

- Look up "amateurs on usenet" and find G3RJV, then ask him.
-
- If George doesn't know, I don't think anyone else will.
