I work into California occasionally. AO-27 in mid or late afternoon would be the way, as my gear is limited and in various states of disrepair. Crowded passes are sometimes tough for my portable station and when I get fed up with impolite ops and alligators I take a break of a few passes or a few weeks. Hope to work you one of these days.

I've worked a few others in Maine, so keep listening.

Are there NO hams in Maine on the satellites? I see good looking footprints for Northern New England. Merv _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.
