Lucky timing allowed me to put out two grids - DK05 and DK06 - during today's midday AO-91 pass. Later on, I was on from CK96 on XW-2C/D/F and RS-44/CW, and then from CK86 on XW-2A and a later RS-44/CW pass. Both RS-44 passes were tough for me to hear my own downlink, and I'm surprised that so many QSOs were made. If I'd been using SSB, the QSOs on RS-44 wouldn't have been possible, but CW got the job done.

We have another time change tonight - we'll be GMT -8 as of Monday - so I doubt I'll be on AO-91's midday pass. If I am, I'll probably be in CK66 at that time. I should be on XW-2F at 27/0108Z, hopefully still in CK67 before crossing out of that grid a few minutes after the pass. I'll be looking to be on from CK57 on two passes each of CAS-4A/B and RS-44/CW plus one XW-2A pass between 27/0155Z and 0450Z. 73/Jim, ND9M
