If I can get my down link antenna to work I'll try and be on sometime over the next few days.
I can only see passes from here (JO01FR) between 70dg & 180dg az and above 40dg el.
Used a hand held antenna 2 years ago with a K5GNA & FT817 and that was fine but tried a BBQ grill thing tonight with a UEK3000 and that was (to put it politely) poor.

Looks like AO-51 is going to be pretty quiet until Jan 11th.....
Only for those who don't try S band or the BBS! There is typically a good amount of activity on V/S, and it was a requested mode this month, as it is most months.
