G'day Joe, Great to see so much activity on the ISS over Australia. I found it interesting that changing polarity didn't make any difference to my uplink signals, I changed several times on different passes without any noticeable difference. I think the signals must be bouncing off all the solar panels and hardware up there and coming in at all angles. This would account for the dropouts at times when signals come in 180 deg out of phase.
