[amsat-bb] Tnx fer AO-10 QSO [DC8TS de K3XS]

[Margaret Leber <maggie@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Hardy--

I enjoyed very much our QSO via AO-10 a few minutes ago. It was my 
first transatlantic contact via AO-10, and it was a pleasant change 
from my usual struggle with my inefficient S-band recieve system on 
AO-40.  Your signals further improved after our QSO, and I continue to 
recieve you at a good 4-4 as I type this message.

I was fortunate to be in my station and happened to look at my tracking 
software and noted that AO-10 was in an excellent location for EU DX; 
had it been any lower in my easter sky it would have been eclipsed by 
ny house. 

I can certainly confirm reports from other AMSAT ops that AO-10 is in 
especially good health lately! 

 73 es gud DX de Maggie K3XS
