Hi all, A perfect evening here in Wales ( UK ) for the pass - No wind or rain and not to hot. I copied the audio and SSTV just using my Kenwood THD7 and Arrow antenna with excellent satisfaction. Thanks to all involved in the project and arrangements it really made my day. And thanks also for the " New One" Hi! Ken Eaton GW1FKY Amsat -UK Amsat NA
Just to add my thanks to Dave and Frank for their activities this afternoon.
Brilliant!
Regards
David G8OQW

Hi All,
Yes a great signal from AO51 this evening on an almost overhead pass. As well as the message it was interesting to hear the bursts of repetitive QRM on the L band uplink. From previous ATV experience I could instantly identify it as coming from one or more of the "en route" aeronautical high power radars that we share the band with over here.
Congratulations and thanks to everyone involved in organising the event!
