During low elevations the drift is minor, but high elevations and \nyou find yourself very busy. It's doable, but it begs for automation of \nsome parts of the system.\n\nThe last couple of days not many passes I could be active. Hopefully \nnext week is going to be better for more tries. Cheers for the advice.\n\nHans\n\nBX2ABT\n\n\nOn 05/10/2019 02:50 AM, [email protected] wrote:\n> Hans,\n>\n> The funny thing is that if both stations don't auto-correct for \n> doppler they can stay in QSO for much longer since both will \"walk\" \n> the satellite's pass band.
