Hi Ed, Were you in SSB or FM mode? I was on the earlier pass (20:00z) today, and at least for that pass the bird was in SSB/CW mode. Had my first contact on HO-68, a nice chat with Kerry, WC7V, in Montana. It was quite loud, like S5 when most birds barely move the needle. Really easy to copy. Great job, CAMSAT!
