Just sending out a friendly reminder to anyone who is just beginning on the FM satellites that there is a standard operating procedure that helps to ensure that everyone gets a chance at a QSO or two on a pass. (Calling "CQ Saudisat" is not standard operating procedure, especially if you are transmitting over someone else.)
Please take the time read the following very helpful document from the amsat.org website:

Following these procedures makes the satellite more fun for everybody.
73!
