Since nothing is\nbeing heard on the UHF downlink, they think the bird is open, so call CQ\neven more. Their thinking mode V/U, it totally blows away the S band D/L.\nThis happened 3 or 4 years ago. The whole pass was people calling CQ FD\nwithout listening to the mode s D/L. A disaster. I don't think I heard even\n1 contact being made on several east coast passes I tried. We have to\nremember there are a lot of groups trying to make a sat contact for the\npoints, that don't read this SIG, so they just try calling on the V/U\nfrequencies. I'm for L/U. It would be cool to try L/S, but I think I was\ntold it isn't possible because it wouldn't leave a channel for control? \n\n73 Jeff kb2m\n \n\n-----Original Message-----\nFrom: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On\nBehalf Of Alan P.

That would certainly encourage people to try\nL/U or V/S. Based on last year's numbers, every L/U station could have\nworked every other station easily, given the shortness of a FD QSO.\nConsidering that people manage to work these modes portable, and in the case\nof N5AFV, mobile, it is relatively easy to get on. The mode-S downlink is\ntruly loud, easily overcoming the general 2.45 GHz QRM/QRN.\n\nAlan\nWA4SCA\n\t \n\n\n_______________________________________________\nSent via [email protected].
