It was the 1st test open of this bird's transponder. Everything works just great!

With such a big footprint it will be a remarkable experience for newcomers and oldtimers alike. For my part, my QTH in Maritime (Eastern) Canada will have a 3 deg. elevation view to the XW-1 at the same time that Moscow, Russia has a 3 deg. elevation view. Imagine that FM to FM! 73, Bruce -- http://ve9qrp.blogspot.com ___ Sent via amsat...@amsat.org. Opinions expressed are those of the author. Not an AMSAT-NA member?
