My observation is that usually - when I have a nice high pass (elevation> 15-20 deg) over my QTH - USA - East Coast - HO-68 is in one of it's scheduled off times. Not a complaint -- I'm just trying to figure out how to better coordinate with the HO-68 schedule.
Thoughts / Comments appreciated

Hi Bruce, WA3SWJ
The same happens here in south of Europe and this is why I abandoned HO-68 in favour most of the time of the most reliable VO-52.

Same thing happens here in Florida (South East USA) The only passes are usually low and difficult with omni antennas. As a result we have also chose not to try and work HO-68 during the lower passes. All of the good passes, the satellite is not active for our area.
