This was an excellent reception for me in Raleigh, North Carolina with just a 15 degree pass. My pass started about one minute before Miami's pass started and ended about two minutes before Miami's pass ended. I picked up Tim Peake establishing the contact full quieting (no noise) with a signal strength of S7 to S9 on the S-meter (where 9 is the highest) and held that quality and signal strength through the answer to question 15. I heard nothing after that but my pass was about over by then. The school reported they got through question 16 but couldn't get more due to buildings blocking the signal, so I got all but one of the answers on a relatively low height/elevation pass of only 15 degrees. Not bad.

This is my reception of the International Space Station talking to Booker T. Washington Senior High in Miami, Florida on Monday March 14th, 2016 at 15:48 UTC. The school was using callsign W4SVI and British astronaut Tim Peake was using callsign NA1SS. My callsign is KG4AKV.
