Hi Mark, Thanks for showing up early on the previous pass of A0-27. I heard you call and thought to myself, someone is calling Mark, it's the next pass, not this one. Then it hit me...... IT is Mark, you dummy! I only heard KB9CL and myself work you, then the digital. Thanks again for the rare grid.

Yes, that was one of many in Nevada I needed. I sent you an e-mail a few minutes ago with the specifics for our QSO. I had intended on taking a late lunch to make that pass, and - unfortunately - work ensured I would not get a lunch break any earlier. I made it to a park near my office and was able to set up my antenna just as the AO-27 repeater switched on. It took a few calls before I heard you say you got me, but you did. I hope you were able to make many satellite operators happy with a new grid for the logbooks. 73!
