Rick,

Seems that you did not understood. When not in eclipse (in Sun) just do not work, no return from the birds.

When in eclipse seems fine and I did Tx on for a few seconds just to test.

This is what is confusing to me this side. No traffic at all in this part of the world so no issue of depleting the batteries for a few seconds of Tx.

Hope, you will understand.

Good Evening,

Just made a test with AO-91 (just a few minutes ago), worked fine in eclipse 59 (SAT without Sun) and made same test when in sunlight for both AO-91 and AO-92 many times  during the past weeks without any success.

I am quite confused as trying to respect AMSAT guidelines not to Tx when in eclipse seems to work the over way round for me, may be someone have an explanation.
