I heard a lot of activity on the April 2 2350 UCT pass. It was a 58 degree elevation pass for my location (DM91). I tried to get in, working mobile from a McDonald's parking lot, but didn't have any success.

I've tried unsuccessfully to work the last 4 high elevation passes of SO-50 including a 70 degree pass this morning. I've heard a couple of snatches of activity, but not enough to even get a call sign. This is in contrast to the pass I worked Saturday at 58 degrees that had a bunch of activity on it. I was thinking it was my equipment, 2m mobile into a dual-band GP and a 6 element yagi and HT for downlink.

I havent heard SO-50 on either of the two passes I could use today. I had heard it over the weekend. I had been on AO-51 and AO-16 today so I know my equipment is ok.
