Dear All,
Was quite happy to hear myself 59 on AO-92 this evening. Strong signal as good as before in spite in eclipse. I did not try the TLM capture.
Just for info

For future reference, AMSAT has asked us not to use AO-91 or AO-92 in eclipse even if you hear the repeater on, due to the batteries being at the end of their life.
It is mentioned here: https://www.amsat.org/two-way-satellites/
