AO-7B continues to struggle along. This mornings 1005utc pass was no exception. No signals were heard from Europe and I could not hear my downlink until the satellite was over 15 degrees. Low power up on cw produced key clicks in the downlink. Surprisingly, higher power started to produce a tone along with the key clicks. On voice the downlink was distorted with low power. Again, higher power produced more audio and less distortion. I only heard one station sending dah's but very weak. AO-7 seems to have good passes and not so good passes. You just have to keep trying and hope to find a good one. 73, John K8YSE
