ARRISat-1 was in pretty good shape when it finally turned on after being in eclipse this morning around 1510z or so. I had a good qso with WB0KFC and heard someone else (maybe N8MH?) at the end of the pass. The bird went off the air around 1516z before my LOS.
The next pass at 1643z should be good for western and the southeastern USA. Give it a try. It's 15 degrees for me but I'll be calling. Run as much power on the uplink as you have. It doesn't hear very well with a stubby antenna. Hope to work you. 73, John K8YSE _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.
