Made my first contact with Dave W5GT in EM12 on CAS-4a Satellite this morning at 1320 utc time . Also heard Frank K4FEG Transponder on and good signals. Hard to keep up with Doppler.. I had to increase my Cat tuning by 100 hz every second or so to follow my downlink.. Dave/W5GT had a great signal... JACK KC7MG DM42
Jack,
KM0MMM mentioned on Twitter that XW-2D was also up at the same time. It's possible that you actually made those QSOs via XW-2D as they share uplink and downlink frequencies.
That would explain why the CAT was off as well.
