So I WAS hearing it far northeast on the last pass. This is not the first time this has happened, I can remember at least two west coast passes, (over the Pacific). I was wondering why there was no one responding. I thought I had mentioned it on here... Where can I get TLMEcho? I would love to moniter, I try all the passess, and I miss the early morning passes the most of all! Kevin KF7MYK
