    "content": "Hi!\n\nAfter seeing several people at my demonstration in Goodyear\nAZ last week used their HTs with standard duckie antennas to\nhear AO-85 as it passed by, and seeing many positive comments\non how easy it is to hear this downlink, I decided to try it\nfor myself. On my way to the office this morning, I stopped\nat a shopping center parking lot for the AO-85 pass around\n1438 UTC to hear this pass. AO-85 went up to a maximum\nelevation of 41 degrees, which would have been a nice pass\nto work if I had my Elk log periodic in the car.\n\nAfter about 3 minutes into the pass, I could hear the round-\ntable conversation taking place. Using my Wouxun KG-UV9D HT\nand a Nagoya NA-701 2m/70cm duckie antenna that is about 8.5\ninches/22cm long, and with the squelch open, I was able to\nlisten to the downlink. I had to move the HT around while\nlistening to the downlink, but I was hearing it. I had the\nHT in narrow FM, as I described in my report on working\nstations via AO-85 using this HT and my Elk log periodic\nantenna I sent to the -BB yesterday. I had to adjust the\nfrequency down from 145.980 MHz through 145.9775 MHz to\n145.975 MHz near the end of the pass, using one of the\nHT's VFOs.\n\nWhile I was listening to this pass, I used my mobile phone\nto make a short video clip of what I was doing. The 4-minute\nclip I recorded around the middle of the pass is now on\nYouTube at:\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZDpRZHd2FE\n\nThere is a point in this video clip where I was not hearing\nthe downlink, as I dropped the radio into my car. Once I\npicked it up and held it outside the car again, I was able\nto continue hearing the downlink. This is not a professional-\ngrade video (it was recorded in 720p, but I'm not a movie\nproducer), but it shows that we don't need much to hear AO-85.\n\nDuring this pass, I heard several stations, and the video\nclip has most of them. I was hearing WA6DIR in California,\nKC7MG in Arizona, AA5PK in Texas, W7SXM in Washington state,\nand late in the pass I heard KC9ELU in Indiana. If I had\nplanned this out better, I would have tried to record more\nof the pass, and made sure I didn't drop the radio during\nthe recording.\n\nHappy Thanksgiving, and 73!\n\n\n\n\n\nPatrick WD9EWK/VA7EWK\nhttp://www.wd9ewk.net/\nTwitter: @WD9EWK\n",
