Hello Pirajá,

AO-7 is fantastic satellite (also also the crew in the sat is fantastic!...hihi).

I don´t have yet antena for 10m and my dipole to 20m could not hear nothing.

I must find a solution to join AO-7 in MODE A.

Best regards,

Hello All,

Yesterday, when the AO-7 has radically changed the mode B to mode A, I noticed that the amount of QSO in mode "A" increased significantly, we see in the log of the AO-7. The signals are stronger at 29.450 MHz. Now the night, I heard stations of PY5LF, PY4ZBZ and especially Joe, K3SZH with signal 5 / 7 at the end of the orbit, in SSB. Is a wonderful sign in mode "A". I use a antenna 40 meters of wire and a 3 element yagi. I would like to invite the users of AO-7 to take this chance that the satellite is giving us to keep the QSO in mode A, I do not know how long it will last this facility.
