G'day Andy, thanks for brief contact and my first on AO-73. Your downlink signal was good and I also heard VK2ZAZ and VK2EVB. I did do some minor uplink doppler corrections during our brief contact but they were very small adjustments. Towards the end of our brief contact your were on the edge of my r.i.t. (+1kHz) then the spacecrafts elevation was to low for me. thanks again cheers VK5EI - Joe
