"I wish we had more linear transponders"

There are linear transponders that might have 1 or 2 people on them on a given NA pass.  They are DEAD QUIET ... well, not that bad, but there is lots of room on them.  

I have great SSB QSO's on RS44 ... long passes as well.  

I wish more people used Linear Transponders is the real problem.  

Just guessing, but I am pretty sure there are more active Linear birds than FM birds.  

If you want on them bad enough, you'll figure out a way to make it happen.  At, there are lots of people who will help you do it as well.
