[Bruce Anderson]

Here is your link to the Billerica Amateur Radio Society's December 6 Zoom meeting.

Topic: Basic Satellite Tracking Frank Garofalo, WA2NDV
Frank was originally licensed in 1970 in Corona Queens, He was in 8th grade at the time and it gave my life a direction. Amateur Radio has allowed him to work in many diverse places including 18 years at NBC-NY and 15 years as a VoIP Engineer for the cable company with 3.5 million voice customers. It all started at the proverbial 5KW three tower directional AM radio station! Now he is retired. He asserts that the Ham License and First Class (General now) Radiotelephone licenses have been more useful over the years than any college degree. He uses an IC-9700 for satellites with an InnovAntennas on a G5500 AZ/EL rotor. Rig and rotor are computer controlled with S.A.T. a stand-alone satellite tracker. His Satellite Contacts on LEO's and MEO as of Nov 21, 2023, 92 Countries, 771 Grid squares worldwide, 50 States, 4017 QSO's with 1446 unique stations and three NA1SS astronaut contacts. Through 41 satellites. Please join us on December 6 for a very interesting and informative presentation on Satellite Tracing, another fascinating aspect of our hobby. This is a presentation I am sure you won't want to miss!
