I forgot to mention that the MBM88 was also referenced as a Jaybeam. It was
manufactured by Jaybeam Limited, ,Northampton, England and was recognized for

All,
Just listened to the 18:35Z ARISSat pass over Cincinnati. Satellite was on
time but signal on both 149.950 MHz and 149.930 seemed to be much weaker than
usual. How did others in Midwest and Eastern US receive?
73,
Farrell Winder, W8ZCF
ALL,
ARISSat on the 21:40 Z pass Dec 2, 2012 for Cincinnati was right on the mark
and had good CW signal return from the transponder. Heard someone calling but
could not get reception above the noise floor.
Trying next pass at 23:12 Z but it may be eclipse controlled.
73, Farrell Winder
Mark, I'll be set up for the 19:14 Z pass and will listen for you and any
others who might try..
