I've worked them using 3 watts PEP and an Arrow. IMO XW-2F has the best transponder. BTW, I worked Craig on -2A and -2F in the past hour. WA7ETH was in there also.

I have 296 contacts logged between XW-2A,B,C,D,E, & F. The majority on are A & C.

Hey Craig,
I've called CQ for dozens of passes and heard nobody else on the XW Sats. But I agree, my signal is loud and clear. Very underutilized.
