AMSAT-SM - Official Website of AMSAT-SM SwedenHejsan!
Jag undersker intresset fr att frska aktivera FM satelliterna portabelt ver SM! Mnga har ju en duobands handapparat eller en duomobil som gr att anvnda. Kanske kunde man bestmma ngra passager ngon helg i hst eller vinter och frska kra lite SM kontakter.
Samtidigt s undrar jag ver intresset att frska gra ett vettigt inkp av antenner som lnken nedan eller frska ta fram ett svenskt kit med hjlp av dom kllor som finns inom SM.(hr grna av er med frslag)

Folks
Just returned from 78 degrees north tonight. I managed to work many folks on AO-51, FO-29 and a few on GO-32. I attempted AO-7 a couple of times, but had no luck.
I apologise to the Japanese amateurs listening for me. The schedule I had was not great for working FO-29 into JA, with mutual visibilities beingabout 3am. Locating a viable location for 1 to 2 degrees elevation to the east was not at all good – the area I was in was pretty mountainous, and
access to good locations is difficult and dangerous without being trained in such household items as a high calibre rifle to fend off the polar bears.
It can also be a bit chilly!
As I was there primarily to configure a remote groundstation, this work took priority.
In the end I did have a quick go on HF but it was totally dead.
As for Svalbard itself, I can recommend it – 13 or so passes per polar orbiting LEO each day, an astonishing number of them almost overhead , some outstanding places to eat, and it s duty free.
Operating conditions were not ideal although at night you don t need a torch to see where you re going.
Please, all QSLs direct (I am QTHR).
