Howdy,
I am in the process of studying for a Tech-No code ham license (Hope
this doesn't turn some of you off from reading the rest of this
message. :-) )
I will be driving to Texas in a few months and would like very much to
take a HT with me (actually that is irrelevant as I might purchase a
mobile unit). I would really like to be able to stay in touch
with folks back here in NJ. What band would you recommend to accomplish
this, and is it possible on the freqs allowed with a tech-no code
license?
Thanks,
Rod

If anyone out there knows where an amateur radio class close to Hayward,
CA is, let me know. I'd like to get in on the beginning of a class
which is local, if possible.
Thanks, Sheri Ritchie @ Easy Access

Unfortunately, a lot of the information new hams need to understand just what
all those knobs are doing on the front of those old transceivers is just not
around any more in any of the handbooks or introductory literature. When I was
"tooling up" for my general class license, I remember studying "Understanding
Amateur Radio" from the ARRL. A real fine text that helped me understand
just what what going on inside the box. I'm not sure anything like that is
available any more. All the new entrants can do is rely on the Elmers to help
'em out.
I wonder what ever happened to my copy of that book?

SB SAREX @ AMSAT $STS-58.025
SAREX Keps & Update: 10/28
Thursday 10/28/93 @ 08:00 UTC
The last school group contact was completed yesterday. The Portsmouth HS
in Portsmouth, New Hampshire had a telebridge contact using stations in
California (Ralph Warner, N6MNN) and Texas (Bob Douglas, W5GEL). The
students asked 5 questions during this bridge contact.
Hams across the U.S. and around the world continue to work the Shuttle
Columbia on both voice and packet. Moreover, the completion of school
group contacts has cleared several school backup passes for possible
general QSO opportunities. While the SAREX Working Group cannot fully
guarantee availability, there is a high probability that the STS-58 crew
will be ready to take general calls over the continental U.S. on these
passes. Two of these "scheduled" passes remain. These include orbit
178 at MET 11 days 1 hour 42 minutes (10/29 at 16:35 UTC) and orbit 192
at MET 11 days 22 hours and 29 minutes (10/30 at 13:22 UTC). Please note
that the astronauts operated voice during yesterday's "scheduled" pass
which occurred on 10/27 at 14:59 UTC (Orbit 145). Also note that hams on
the ground heard or worked the Shuttle Columbia crew on several other orbits
yesterday.
Element set GSFC-031, generated by Ron Parise, WA4SIR, is the official SAREX
set for today. Please note that there is only a six second difference
between element set GSFC-025 (released two days ago) and element set GSFC-
031.

Decay rate: 0.13E-02 rev/day*2 Apogee Alt: 281.30 Km
Epoch rev: 138 Perigee Alt: 264.25 Km
NOTE - This element set is based on NORAD element set # 031.
The spacecraft has been propagated to the next ascending
node, and the orbit number has been adjusted to bring it
into agreement with the NASA numbering convention.
