    "content": "Clint,\n\nSeeing that I did not send a message out with that\nsubject line (without the \"Re:\", of course), I was\namused to see that it was pretty much another report\nof your ISS contact on Saturday, and didn't really\nmatch up with the subject line.  :-)  But since you\nput it there, I'll elaborate on it...\n\nI suppose there are many of us who could have made\nthe ISS QSO with two watts (or possibly less), if we\nhad the same combination of that ISS pass and your\nlocation relative to that pass.  You know this already.\nHere in Arizona, I figured I would have had a chance\nif I was able to get in early, before the footprint\ncovered much of North America. When I ran SatPC32\nyesterday to wind the clock back to Saturday morning,\nI was shocked to see that the ISS footprint was all\nthe way out to the Mississippi River around the time\nof my brief QSO. The elevation was up to 48 degrees\ntoward the northwest, around the time the ISS was\napproaching northwestern Arizona, when I got through -\nprobably the best chance for me to make the QSO. I put\na screenshot from SatPC32 in my slideshow video from\nthe first ISS pass showing this, about midway through\nthe video. Location, location, location...\n\nI had a couple of radios I could have used for more\nthan 5 watts transmit power on 2m (the IC-2820H will go\nup to 50W, and I could have transmitted at up to 20W on\nthe internal batteries of my FT-897D), if I wanted to\ndo that.  I stick with QRP power when I do my own Field\nDay efforts - something I have done in most years since\nI bought my first FT-817 in 2001 - for the challenge,\neven when trying to crack the pileup for NA1SS.  I have\nmade 3 of my previous 6 ISS QSOs with only 5 watts, and\none of those using a long telescoping whip on an HT\ninstead of a directional antenna, so I know anything is\npossible.\n\nI e-mailed Christy KB6LTY, who lives near Victorville,\nto see if she was part of that group that you said may\nhave made the QSO before you.  She's involved with Scouts\nthere, and is occasionally on the satellites, so it would\nhave been a real treat if that was the case.  I heard\nsomething around 1814-1815 UTC, but the audio was not\nreadable at my station.\n\nCongratulations to ALL who were successful in making a QSO\nwith the ISS during Field Day.  73!\n\n\n\n\n\nPatrick WD9EWK/VA7EWK\nhttp://www.wd9ewk.net/\n\n\n\nOn Tue, Jul 1, 2014 at 1:02 AM, Clint Bradford <[email protected]>\nwrote:\n\n> WD9EWK>> ... used my IC-2820H, Elk log periodic, with the\n> power cranked down to 5W ...\n>\n> What? FIVE WATTS?!?! You power hog ... (grin)\n>\n> <snip>\n>\n>\n> I believe a Boy Scout from Victorville got in there at the beginning,\n> too ... THEN the pile-up began!
