Just worked the new xw-1 satellite.
It is nice to have a new ssb/cw satellite and it sounded great on the past a short time ago.
Then that was followed by a VO-52 pass that was even louder (of course it is higher).
I hope this new bird stays in the ssb/cw transponder mode most of the time.
Great satellite times ahead.
This gives me more of a chance to reach 6,000 qso's by satellite (still need 38)
