Uh, dude, you've caught it ... and it is quite contagious ... with few known 
cures:

Satellite-itis.

I've tred everything to cure myself of this. Modern meds - legal and, er, 
otherwise. Pina Coladas. Using VistaPrint to make AMSAT banners and 
informational post cards. Staying up for 48 hours preparing for a party and 
trying to work ARISSat-1 ... NOTHING has cured me of this malady.

Every once in a while, my wife will hear me exclaim from the back yard, "I just 
talked to Vancouver!" I am sure she thinks I am nuts, and wonders why I just 
don't use the cell phone ...

>> ... recording the passes ...

What is your setup? A direct connection to your audio, or a smartphone voice 
recorder app, or ??? ?

 so I have an audio recording of my first AO-51 QSO.

I am to old to get this affected ... thanks!

Clint, K6LCS
