Messages are much more secure now with the shuttles.. Some of the hams
have some pretty good equipment. As a rule it is NOT the TRUE amatuer
that put out a false transmission and the other characters are usually
located very fast...
You are a camera man: what happened to all the hand held Hasselbrods
(SP) that they took up... I saw many EXCUSES as to why thay had not
released some of the pics.. such as "forgot to take lens cap off" from a
single lens reflex.. "Left the film pack, forgot" with several people
monitoring a check list of each activity...
I know that they were supposed to leave the cameras BUT bring the film
back...
Your opinion and what you have heard... Please...

Thanks for supporting the "theory". Many people are not aware what fine
equipment many of the amatuers have and their abilities... Your list of
frequencies shows this.. Also what valuable help you are during an
emergency... I am more familar with the OLD MARS which I hope is still
working... Would you like an old National NC-125 in working
condition???? I have one.. :-) but never went any farther...
Thanks again for the info...
I would like to have heard some of the direct communications...
