Albert,
I'm confused and have to ask as to why you can't work past MT on FM. I'm one gird over from you (CN94) and have worked the entire eastern seaboard and Puerto Rico via FM from here. Do you have some massive mountain blocking you?

I am encouraged by the numbers of Satellite operators who would also to like to make a DE contact. I appreciate that it is less complicated to set up a portable station for the FM mode but my hope is whomever makes DE available has linear satellite capability. With my present station in western OR I cannot work further east than MT on FM birds but can work the Midwest on CAS-4A/B and the east coast on RS-44. 73 - Al -N7EQF -CN84
