Hi Gary,
No, I didn't, but the passes before that one were great. Yesterday was for me the 1st time I had time to try AO16.
Signals got really strong(er) in the last minutes of a pass. Between 2 downto 0.5 degrees elevation the link was better as between 5 downto 2 degrees. I recall that AO7 145/29mhz mode had the same effect at my station. Kinda good for long distance contacts :-)
Anyway, despite that, I 'only' worked other European stations, no Canada or US (OZ1MY, RK3DXB, SP9TTX, G8ATE). MP3 recordings are on my website (http://www.qsl.net/pa3guo under LOGS).
But: of course looking forward to some intercontinental QSOs !

Anyone hear any activity other than W0DXZ in DM33? 73, Gary -K8KFJ-
