Thanks Paul

I finally found myself right as the pass ended, I've got a direct overhead at 05:00 . At least I know a starting point.

It's definitely running high. I tune manually and I can usually estimate where I need to tune my uplink for AO-7 and VO-52 quite close when I want to call a station. I had a hell of a time on the last pass of AO-73. I found myself once and couldn't make any QSOs.

Will try again tomorrow night!

73.

What sort of calibration numbers is everyone seeing for AO73 ?

I'm seeing greater than 10K and I know that can't be right.

Uplink 435.130 to 435.150

Downlink 145.950-145.970

Correct ?

Copied folks great on 03:26 pass 10 deg

Thanks
