Had a nice QSO with Clare, VE3NPC via the ISS repeater this morning during the 1235 pass over Vermont, FN34im. We were alone.
I held the repeater longer today. Doppler tuning seems pretty critical. Clare was computer controlled. I was using manual tuning (OK, call me old school...) One of these days I'll hook up the radios for computer tuning. I got a copy of SatPC32 so maybe it's time.

Good morning Mike, copied you just fine here in MO EM47wx. I used to be KC2JO when I was stationed at Plattsburgh AFB. Retired in 1991. Good luck 73 John,K0QH
