This CafeCast is of amateur radio satellite AO-92 that was recorded on Wednesday, October 23, 2019 using my Baofeng UV-82 and a whip antenna. This was my last attempt with my old call sign, KD5DLJ. Now that I am an extra I requested a new vanity call that fits perfectly with my attempts to build interest in the amateur radio hobby. The new call is K5DCC. The DCC stands for DigiCommCafe which is the hub of all my ham radio activites.
Again, as usual, leave me a voice message and let me know if you heard yourself. Tell us what you are using for satellite work or ask a question that we can deal with in a future episode. Make sure you tell us you name, location and call sign. It just may appear in this or a future podcast.
Drop-in on my LIVE Podcast each morning at 7:00am Central in the DigiCommCafe Chat Group on Telegram in the Voice Chat! Join our DigiCommCafe Community on the Mighty Networks platform, our Facebook alternative.
If you're interested in becoming a licensed amateur radio operator, I recommend you useHamtestOnline for your studies and preparations. I used it to get my Extra Class Upgrade.
Do you live in a rural location like me? I’ll bet you struggle to get reliable internet, don’t you? I have finally found an inexpensive service. It’s called Visible which is owned by Verizon and uses their network. They only have one plan and it is unlimited everything for $40 a month! If you join the Digicommcafe Party Party Group that drops to $25/month! Request a line at https://visible.com and use my referral code: 3n37nt. Once you have your SIM card installed and registered, go to https://visible.com/p/DigiCommCafe and join our party to drop to $25 a month for unlimited everything! We are very happy with the service.
