[FARC] Worked Texas, Louisiana, & Arizona from the van

Sat May 3 09:20:17 EDT 2008

No, not HF and not echolink.

Amateur Radio Satellite!

I've done this before, but it has been a while it is the first time
with the Kenwood TM-D710.

What antenna did I use?  Just the 18" dual band mobile antenna on the
roof of the van.

There wasn't much setup involved, just set the rig to VFO mode and go.
 I did have to change the step on 440 from 20 kHz to 5 kHz.
