Does anyone know if the QRP frequency is operational right now, everyday, on AO-51, I tried it a few weeks ago twice with nothing heard, two days ago, I tried the regular voice frequencies and with my 5 watt HT on my arrow, could not seem to get a word in edgewise over the traffic and I hate to keep calling and putting out noise, I could hear most everyone loud and clear but could not get a response...............

Rich,
The "standard" QRP transponder is actually seldom in operation. Unless there is some anomalous situation, the definite place to look is here:

I can't include details like JOTA, SKN, QRP, SSTV, etc on that page, so I'd prefer folks use http://www.amsat.org/amsat-new/echo/CTNews.php to get the definitive story.
