Video: How to work satellites with your HT

I found a very nice video on Vimeo from Tim, AE6LX explaining from start to finish how to work the birds on your handheld radio. This video can be helpful for those just starting out, and clearly explains the equipment, doppler shift, timing, and other important information on low-earth orbit satellites.

    Very informative. As a fairly new ham, I am not familiar yet with using satellites for making DX contacts.
    Sounds as though he really nailed it as to how to do it.
