My Favorite Satellite QSO (Web Page)
Randy - KD0HKD and Eddy - KY0F (then KD0HZW,) make a satellite contact between Lenexa, Kansas and Beaverton, Oregon

The Moral of the Story, is Wait Until the Pass is Over, and the Sattelite is Gone... (Youtube)
November 2009 Satellite QSO between Randy - KD0HKD at Kansas City, Missouri and Pablo Lewan - W6RSV at Las Angeles, California.

This one is good! I sent the audio recording of our Satellite Contact of November 12, 2009 to WA6RSV of Las Angeles, California. He topped that by sending me a video recording of the same contact. (Note that he's operating from indoors with his hand held equipment.) That's me about 3 or so minutes into the video. After I clear with WA6RSV, you'll hear another station trying to contact me; W6FOG. He is a maritime operator somewhere out in the Pacific. I missed him, as I had already shut down!
