Hi Drew, AO-51 was off at AOS but turned on OK with short burst of tone at 0748UT. No problems from then on although there was one short drop-out even when I had tone on. Worked VKs OK. Two stations with tone and two without. One drop-out easily fixed for a non tone station with a short tone burst. Still going OK with the VK's at LOS here at around 0754UT.

Before LOS I heard it drop twice for a second or two until it heard a valid tone again. This will happen about every 120 seconds. Reports are welcome, especially from remote users/areas. 73, Drew KO4MA _______________________________________________ Sent via [email protected]. Opinions expressed are those of the author.
