If there's anyone who can work mainland DX on the AO-7 satellite, this 
station in Tennessee and another in Texas are trying for their Worked 
All States.  Please contact Frank K4FEG with information/leads on those 
who could help, and if you have a solid lead, let me know so I can pass 
it along.

Hank KH6HAK has been trying to help the Texas station over the past six 
months, and it's proven to be quite challenging to make a contact from 
an AO-7 portable satellite station.  Any info would be appreciated.

Ron,
I am looking for some help from Hawaii. I have talked to Bob, NH7WN, on 
the satellites here stateside, and asked him if he or anyone he knew 
back home in Hawaii worked the SSB satellites.

*Ao7 is the only satellite that is both operational and has a footprint 
that stretches far enough to reach Tennessee and Hawaii.*

I would dearly love to find someone in Hawaii that was willing to try 
and make a contact through AO7 on mode B.

Bob wasn't sure if you operated the SSB "birds" or not but suggested I 
contact you. If you don't work the satellites maybe one of your fellow 
hams over there in the Aloha State might.

I appreciate any help you give to help me find some one to try a schedule.
Please feel free to pass my call around, I have plenty of contact in on 
my QRZ page.

73's and I hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas
