Ray, I could hear myself extremely well also using about 20 watts. I tried SSB and CW no takers. I was trying around center of pass band.
Will listen for other next time instead of running my big mouth. 73, Jeff - K2AK DM41 -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Sunday, August 07, 2011 7:26 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [amsat-bb] Transponder 1412Z I heard myself calling CQ for about 2 minutes, peaking 569, but no takers that I could hear. Then, about 2 minutes later, I heard AA5PK calling CQ, about the same strength, but I could no longer hear myself. It's a challenge! 73 Ray W2RS _______________________________________________ Sent via [email protected]. Opinions expressed are those of the author. Not an AMSAT-NA member?
