I will make an effort to be on L/U mode tomorrow (12/11) during the afternoon passes over the U.S.  I have 70W on 1.2Ghz but current antenna is 22 el. yagi with no elevation ability.

I was on a few minutes this AM...same thing. I did hear VE3NPC at the 
beginning of the pass, but that was it.

Greetings,
Just a reminder for those with L/U capability the AO-51 control team put 
the second system in L/U mode again after the reset last month. I have 
been full quieting talking to myself two evenings in row using my 10-watts 
and 10-elem. cheap yagi on L-band. I sound really good, btw, hi, hi. L/U 
on through the 14th, hope to hear someone else...
