I don't know if we have a satellite station on line for field day or not. If not, I can work AO-51 with my HT from the field day site for an extra 100 points...

Here's what the rules say about a satellite station:

7.3.7. Satellite QSO: 100 bonus points for successfully completing at least one QSO via an
amateur radio satellite during the Field Day period. "General Rules for All ARRL Contests" (Rule
3.7.2.), (the no-repeater QSO stipulation) is waived for satellite QSOs. Groups are allowed one
dedicated satellite transmitter station without increasing their entry category. Satellite QSOs also
count for regular QSO credit. Show them listed separately on the summary sheet as a separate
"band." You do not receive an additional bonus for contacting different satellites, though the
additional QSOs may be counted for QSO credit unless prohibited under Rule 7.3.7.1. The QSO
must be between two Earth stations through a satellite. Available to Classes A, B, and F.
