ZF2AE Grand Cayman - ZF2AE/ZF8 Little Cayman QRT - LOTW Soon
Folks, I am now back in Chicago from my vacation as of yesterday. This was going to be a "light on satellite" operation and it appears I worked more passes than originally planned.I know I made many people happy but also disappointed a few due to equipment and location issues. I will be transcribing the recordings in the coming days and uploading to LOTW and eQSL hopefully by next weekend, so please be patient for the EK99 grid Although I prefer LOTW, if you did send me a card with an SASE I will respond with a very cool card in return. I am very casual operator and I don't get much on the satellites. Thanks for pulling me out in the pileups on FO-29 and AO-7. Sorry I did not do more FM satellites. That one AO-92 pass was enough for me to pass on doing more. Plus there are some local ZF stations that do periodically get on FM sats.
Please do look into using other satellites like CAS-4B or EO-88. I got on a few passes that were completely empty. These are loud, easy to use and easy to work linear satellites.
QRT for 2018. Thanks again!
