Worked W5PFG and CO6CBF on the pass. Satellite sounded great as it
always does. With my Arrow and 2 FT-817s, I was able to locate my
downlink with the satellite at about 1.5 degrees of elevation. My
signal was plenty loud at about 2.5 degrees.

Good evening,
I will be on AO-73 tonight at around 02:58Z, calling CQ at around
145.965 MHz. These passes usually don't have much, if any, activity
and I'd like to drum up a bit more.
The satellite will enter sunlight at 03:05:45, giving about 7 minutes
of transponder time here in Washington, DC.
