Satellite DXpeditions Coming Soon: K4T & Hawaii
K4T DXpedition
The K4T DXpedtion to EL84 web page (http://aroadventures.org/) says the team plans to include satellite operations. The DXpedition dates are March 11-15, 2010. Team Leader for K4T, Mike Forsythe, AC2V says, "One of the primary stations will be dedicated to satellite operations on a 24 hour basis. Mark Hammond, N8MH will be heading up K4T satellite operations. K4T will be using batteries, solar power, and wind power. It's a completely 'green' operation".
Mike, AC2V said, "The satellite station plans to work FM, SSB and perhaps a bit of CW. We have requested that the secondary repeater on AO51 be dedicated to K4T. As for equipment, at the primary station we are going to have redundant Icom 910 transceivers, Yaesu G-5500 rotor, LVB Tracker, ARR preamps and M2 CP yagi antennas and will be running SATPC32. We also have the option of portable operations with a Yaesu FT-817 with an Elk antenna."
Mark, N8MH said, "We're going to have a top-notch satellite station! You can expect us to be active on AO-7, AO-27, FO-29, SO-50, AO-51, VO-52, SO-67, and HO-68 (depending on the mode schedules of the satellites, of course)." In order to make it easiest to catch K4T this list of target frequencies is planned to be used as a starting point:
Target Frequencies for K4T 11 March - 15 March 2010:
Satellite Downlink Uplink
--------- ------------ -------------
AO-7 145.960 USB 432.136 LSB
AO-27 436.795 FM 145.850 FM

AA5UK in Oahu BL11 and Kauai BL01 and BL02
Adrian, AA5UK, will be on Oahu (BL11) and Kauai (BL02ic & BL01) from March 24th through April 7th operating portable KH6. He plans to operate on the Linear and FM satellites during his stay, mostly from his rented house in BL02ic (March 27th through April 5th) and will try to operate portable/mobile from BL11 and BL01 time permitting. Emphasis will be SSB on FO-29, VU-52, AO-7 and HO-68. Adrian will post daily availability via AMSAT BB, QRZ.com: http://www.qrz.com/db/aa5uk, and Twitter: @AA5UK. Sked requests are encouraged due to the limited pass windows for those operators needing HI for WAS at the fringe of the footprints. Please use the email listed on QRZ.com to arrange for a time and date.
AMSAT DXpedition Loaner Gear
As a reminder, AMSAT has two Arrow antennas, and a TH-D7 available for loan to any member going on a DXpedition, or grid trip. This is the same gear used to activate K5D last year about this time. The D7 is programmed with Alpha-Memory tags for the FM satellites and has both rechargeable and AA battery packs, and is very simple to use. Contact Drew, KO4MA (
