Hi, My update for later pass today ( a low elevation pass ) Beacon heard: Acquisition 1533 hrs GMT when the satellite was out to the West and the Atlantic ocean. Strong initially but noticed a tendency for fading, whether this was perhaps spin or due to the low elevation and terrain from my QTH. Lost signal approx. 1538 hrs GMT Same set up: Kenwood TS 2000 plus ELK antenna and tracking with SATPC32 and AZ/EL Rotator. Ken Eaton GW1FKY
