Sputnik 50th Anniversary Audio Message from OSCAR-51
On October 3rd, the AO-51 satellite broadcast a special message commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Sputnik launch. Bill, AB2UW, brought a portable yagi antenna, a PC with satellite tracking software, a tape recorder, and a dual band HT to the October Radio Central Amateur Radio Club Board meeting, which coincided with the day of the AO-51 special event. Bill pointed his antenna skyward to try to receive the satellite audio first hand. This is what we heard.
