    "content": "Hey Reid,\n\nAO-7 is pretty much \"locked\" in Mode B for the time being because of the nature of its orbit. It's not getting to a point where the system toggles between Modes A and B, but that's fine with me because Mode B is the best mode for me and my station.\n\nI heard myself for the first time at about 00:06 UTC, and moved just below 145.940 to call CQ in CW. I didn't have any takers, so moved up to about 145.944 and started calling again, which is where the WA4??? called me. Our QSO started during the 00:15 minute and ended during the 00:16 minute. \n\n>From what I could hear, the satellite was very strong. I don't know what to say about your not hearing it. I suspect you've checked the antenna on a terrestrial repeater or simplex and know that there's no problem with it or your feedline. I hope you get it figured out.\n\n73,\n\nTim\n-------------- Original message from w4upd <[email protected]>: -------------- \n\n\n> I can't figure out what's wrong here.
