I was on it and worked K8YSE but by the time N5TM joined, I could not contact him. Those were the only two stations identified. I heard many mike keys but no modulation. Yesterday, I could not get on the bird at all, and that was with 25 watts to a small yagi.

It's often hard to get into with only 5 watts.

What happened to PO-101 today? On the most recent pass (a few minutes ago) over EM79, I heard only 2 calls and no actual QSOs. I couldn't get in with my HT.
