I tried to work HO-68 during the pass over West Europe on 16 Jan 20:20 Z and no signal was detected during the whole pass. Only at the highest elevation I noticed a weak echo of the dashes I was puting at the uplink. Am I doing something wrong (new keplerians, new activation timetable, commissioning change) or there is a problem in the bird? 73 de SV1EEK
HO-68's beacon was heard loud and clear in Hawaii at 20:54, same pass.
