Now I know there are thousands of these old radio's that would be perfect for working the SSB satellite's. I am sure they are just sitting there collecting dust. Don't you think that maybe one of you would be nice enough to blow the dust off and send it to a needy, enthusiastic young Ham like me...

Hello everyone, not very many new threads, I was reading some ISS posts and got all excited thinking they were actually using the radios up there...Then I saw the date, you would think they would drop posts after a while. I guess Amsat-bb.org is the place to be. So how come they dont turn on...

So have you made any since?
