Eh. I'm 45 and recently I set up for a SO-50 pass with my Arrow antenna, HTs on and ready, recorder ready, okay let's do this... and then I couldn't hear a single thing coming down from the satellite. Nothing. WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON HERE? DID SO-50 FINALLY GIVE UP THE GHOST? OH MY G- oh wait. 3/4 of the way through the pass I realized I had the uplink and downlink HTs backwards.

Ugh.
