Just got off a 25 degree pass . . . nice to work a new "bird". My first time on the cross band repeater on the ISS. Since it is only 200 miles up it moves quickly across the sky but it sure has a great signal . . . a little tricky to keep on it but great to work new guys on a new bird. Thanks for turning it on . . .

Yep, it sure is nice. I last used it a couple of years ago on Field Day. Solid Signal! 73, Jim KQ6EA
