Being snow-bound today, I decided to count up QSOs per bird for my first 1000 QSOs on the FM satellites. I Stopped at 1000 to make the percentages easy to figure. I wonder if my percentages are typical of other hams who has been on the FM birds for about one year. AO-51 665 AO-27 163 SO-50 90 SO-67 15 HO-68 67
Merry Christmas to all 73 Loren k7cwq CN94

Congratulations Loren!
I would say your percentages below are very common of someone that has been on the birds for a year. I have never taken the time to look at mine, but I would guestimate they are about the same.
73!

Hi Loren,
I would hazard a guess and say in one word -- NO! :-)
The split between the satellites may be similar to what others are doing, but I seriously doubt if ANYONE is working the satellites to the level that you are.
If you stopped at 1000 qso's, how many did you actually work?
