Yes NA1SS heard my reply to his CQ and congratulated me on being the first station heard but unfortunately he didnt get my call right and I wasnt able to get in again. Sigh!!
I agree that the squelch appears to be set hi as it is either a no go or complete quieting. I saw some where that ISS L rx ant is LHCP but if I can get in at all I am wondering if this is correct.

Morning,
Heard Clare, VE3NPC, loud through the repeater. Then they switched to interactive, and said he was the first station heard, though they did not get his call so far as I can tell. No luck here, though the pass was relatively low and blocked with trees and hills. Will recheck the numbers, and try again on the next pass which is nearly overhead.
