I had the same experience this evening Jerry. I listened in to a late night pass of VO52 for some CW activity but no luck. Again, loud stations heard including one in Denver but no CW.

Right now, I'd settle for that ole RS series bird where you worked it on CW and received an automated QSO number in return but I'm starting to date myself now. :-)
