AMSAT Annual Meeting remote participation via EchoLink

The 2014 AMSAT Symposium will be held Friday, Saturday, and Sunday,
Oct 10-12 in Baltimore. The Annual Meeting will be held Saturday
afternoon from 15:45 - 17:15 EDT (19:45z - 21:15z) and will be
broadcast via EchoLink on the *AMSAT* channel.

The Annual Meeting includes a report to the membership by the
President and Senior Officers and includes a question and answer
session where members may ask senior officers and BoD members
questions.
Echolink participants may send questions using the text messaging
feature of EchoLink.

Some of Friday and Saturday's Symposium presentations may also be
available via EchoLink, as these will be used to test the EchoLink
hardware, software, and Internet connection.
See http://www.amsat.org for the Symposium schedule and the titles and
times of the presentations.

If you haven't used EchoLink before, you need to download the software
and validate your license *NOW*. EchoLink use is restricted to
licensed radio amateurs, because EchoLink is frequently used to
remotely key amateur radio transmitters and repeaters. The validation
process is used to prove that you are licensed. See
http://www.echolink.org for more information. EchoLink software is
available for free for Windows, Linux, OSX, iPhone, iPad, and Android.
An Internet connection is required.

Once you've started EchoLink, search for the *AMSAT* channel (node
#101377), select it, and "Connect". The channel name includes
asterisks (*) both before and after AMSAT.
