I wasn't there this year, but one other other item for the good list was
that Marion Blakey didn't show up. I finally got my Ku band satellite
receiver set up to receive the transmissions from the FAA Production
Studios there, and I caught the "Meet the FAA" session. They said she
had an international travel schedule conflict. (Uh. Ya, right.)

Care to share the details on your configuration (satellite, channel,
schedule, etc.)? I'd seen a listing about this previously and inquired at a
Wings event but they didn't have any details. I'd like to digitize them for
future hosting on a website...

Darrel,

The FAA transmissions are on satellite AMC-3, 87 deg West, Transponder
18, Vertical polarity, 12055 Mhz, s/r 3.020 MSPSm FEC 3/4, Video PID 33,
Audio PID 36, PCR PID 33

Here's where I got that information http://www.floridaaviationnetwork.com/

They have information that says they are on Dish Network channel 9411.
They also have a web stream in Windows Media format.

The program schedule is he

You'll need a receiver for MPEG/DVB transmissions. My situation was
that I had a older C/Ku band receiver for watching TV. I put a MPEG/DVB
receiver card in a nearby PC and split the signal from the satellite
blocking the DC power. I still use the original system for positioning
the dish and powering the amplifier on the dish. Instead of the card,
there are separate receiver units like this:

Mary and I just returned from 6 glorious days at Sun N Fun in
Lakeland, FL, where we enjoyed the most amazingly perfect weather I
have ever seen at such an event. The nights were cool (almost cold
the first few nights) -- perfect for sleeping -- and the days were
sunny and warm. No humidity, no bugs, no alligators -- just lots and
lots of aircraft!

It was a nice show altho' little windy at times. I stayed in the U/L -Light
Sport plane area most of the time. Got to visit with Vicki Cruse for an hr or so
as well as with Walt Troyer,Frank Hitlaw and Tim Kirns.
My $100.00 reward for a zoom sighting went unclaimed and I didn't even see any
ANN stringers in my area .Usually I know a couple and they stop and say Hi.

Started a new distributer in Argentina and one in Peru. So all and all it was a
good show for me (CGS). The B-2 was awesome! the Muzzle loader tasty,only one
confirmed kill and 4 or 5 probables,our 25th anniversary party for the CGS Hawk
went great,the U/L party on sat. was a hoot with 2 members of the female
persuasion flashing the band for beads. Had that happen years ago when I played
in a rock band but never at SnF:-)I probably shouldn't have said anything now
next year all you guys will show up with cameras :-)

I want to publicly thank Lou Ann ,Harley,Laura and the rest of the Florida gang
that made my 25th anniversary of the CGS Hawk such a success.The decorations
were great and the food was outstanding thanks loads to each and every one of
you.

Hey Chuck,

If you need someone to make a sales call in Peru, my wife would love to take
care of it for you (and visit her family while she's there)

If it's in Lima, you don't need to pay for her hotel.

Great!! We sold 15 planes to the Peruvian Air Force back in 1992 or there abouts
Nd the Air Forcr sold a couple to the Peruvian Aero Club. I guess they're
looking for some newer planes. Thanks for the offer :-)

See ya

I didn't see his fat assed Puerto Rican butt boy either. I made a
point to look for him I really wanted to give him every chance to back
up his threats he has made to me in this news group. For that matter I
also didn't see any of the other ann kool aid drinkers either. Oh well
there will always be Oshkosh...

Frank M.Hitlaw at my secret world HQ.

She was falling out of her dress everywhere, and it was
wonderful... ;-)

you sure made the *right* pictures, I suppose.

Alas, no pix. With Mary on my arm at all times, whipping out my Canon
(so to speak) would have been problematic...

;-)

how is Montblack doing? *grin*

Dunno. But he boogied on out of here within an hour after we landed
yesterday, if that gives you any clue!

There is a story to be told sometime, I'm sure.
RAP Party, AirVenture 2007, maybe?
