At 15:00 UTC I again had a QSO with Ed N8BBQ. This AO-51 pass was to the West of me with a max elevation of 33 degrees. The down link carrier was very much quieter with only a bit of impulse QRN. Both Ed's and my audio was very low and exchange of info was marginal.
Another observation is that I can get into the bird down to about 15 degrees elevation as it moves away from me as apposed to about 30 degrees on the approach.
