I have always had a miserable time working this bird. For weeks I’ve been hearing others but no one hears me. The pass just completed took it overhead at more than 50 deg at my QTH. I heard absolutely nothing until the bird was well past TCA and south of me. Suddenly there was KB3IAI and KN4ZAA. Worked both but no one else. Reception was much better on vertical than horizontal. Lots of QRN, however.

 I couldn't hear SO-50 this morning. It should have passed right over head here at EM79. Did other folks have problems or was it just me? About 1224 UTC pass here in southeastern IN.
