Rafael,
Good job with the QSOs! Hope to catch you soon so I can finally say I've worked DC on satellite!
In tQSL, the XW-2 satellites are listed as "Hope 2A," "Hope 2C," etc. "Hope" is the English translation of the Chinese designation for amateur satellites "Xiwang," which is where the XW abbreviation comes from.

Finally, I finished setting up my Leo-Pack and antenna is on top of F12 at roof top. I learned a few tricks when setting up the antenna. The rotor G-5500 is all working as expected.
Yesterday, I tried my first wack at satellites....I tried the XW## and worked two stations. I am using tqsl to login the Qs....I entered pertinent information about the qso but when I select Propagation Mode = Satellite and then want select the Satellite name, I cannot see any of the XW sats and who knows how many more.
I can see the list when I log on to the lotw service portal. The issue is at the software tqsl.. There must be a way to modify that list, I think.
Any assistance is appreciated es hope to work you at some point from FM18LW (DC)
