Hi Clare.
Thank you for your reply.
The pass was fine but no other takers.
It was good to give the new WIMO 4 x 9 turn helix a whirl at such low elevation, (3degrees) Next job is to change the BBQ dish vertical to a 19 turn helix, to get over the fading.
Sept the 16th is a possible, but it's my only day off, so might have to be out doing other things, but the late one on the 17th is a much better one for me.
We have worked before, on the 27th May at 2235 UTC on AO-51.
My place of work is GB1CPB on QRZ.COM. I do get on to a few sat passes from there if I don't have any visitors at the time of the pass.
Perhaps chat on the 17th.
Cheers,
Dave. AMSAT 5766
