Working now...  Nice contact with W9AE in Oregon.  Low pass, so not
super strong, but now I can start optimizing things...  At the end of
the contact, Rx was at 145.960, Tx was 435.155 (both dial readings on my 
FT-736r).

It was also my first AO-73 contact.  I had set up SatPC32 Doppler tuning 
with the frequencies published on the AMSAT-UK web site.  I only needed 
to adjust the TX Offset by +1200 Hz.
The frequency probably varies that much from day to day due to 
temperature changes.
