Good afternoon,

AO-7 was sounding very healthy in Mode B on the pass that just concluded over North America. The beacon was in CW mode and producing strong clean tones without a hint of FMing. Most signals sounded good in the passband. For much of the pass, I was running 500 mW into my Arrow for about 4 watts ERP and getting return signals of S4-S6.

Always nice to have a pass where AO-7 sounds as good as that. There was not much activity, though. I only heard KC4LE, AF5CC, and WI9I.

73,
