Hi,
Decided to blow the dust off WISP and try the BBS. Downlink is rock solid using either WISP or TLMECHO, but I have not been able to request a directory. I have the current PECHO-11 and PECHO-12, and plenty of mode L ERP. It has been a while since I operated LS, but the uplink frequency was netted in and the TNC deviation was ~ 3Kz the last time I checked with no relevant changes. There hasn't been anybody in the queue on any of the passes.
Before I break out the deviation and frequency meters, anybody operated successfully this round, and any suggestions if so?

Hi Alan, I received another comment regarding this, and one of the command stations will check it out tonight.

I will check on the L Band uplink tonight.

Morning,
Saw lots of command ACKS last night. This morning, I was able to get a directory and upload a test message easily. TNX.
