This page is meant to share on-air experiences with K2BSA. Here are two great experiences with satellite QSO’s with audio recordings.
ARRL Kids Day, January 8, 2012, National Scouting Museum
From Tom Scheussler, N5HYP —
We had a decently successful Kids day effort at the Museum on Jan 8. We made some good HF contacts including a long conversation between our Scouts and a big Scout setup in Hawaii. Had an active teen on the other end who talked with at least 4 or 5 scouts in the Museum. We also ran two satellite passes of AO-27 which netted 17 QSO-s. Click on the audio file below.
Radio Merit Badge Workshop, September 10, 2011, National Scouting Museum
This entry is from the September 10, 2011, operation of K2BSA/5 at the National Scouting Museum as part of a Radio Merit Badge class conducted by the Irving Amateur Radio Club and led by Tom Schuessler, N5HYP. It is a recording of several contacts made via amateur radio satellite with a chorus of Scouts chiming in with the grid square location information, which is EM12 for the museum.
