Hi All,
I just got off of AO51, and I could not get in for some reason. I was in V/U mode, and I am aware that it is in V/SU. I was transmitting on the 145.880 uplink (no PL). I heard several others on, but I could not hear myself in the downlink, and no one would respond to my calls.
All I can figure is that I overlooked something – any ideas?

The uplink was on 145.92 during the 2230Z pass. Glenn AA5PK

Zack,
See my previous message to -bb. I switched the uplink to 920 mid pass to try to alleviate the jamming that was occurring. Sorry for the confusion.

Thanks Drew,
I saw your post right after I sent the email. That makes sense now.
