[amsat-bb] AO7 Mode B Mid Atlantic pass

[Dave <nr1dx@xxxxxxxx>]

AO7 Mode B transponder working well this AM on the 12:15Z pass in full 
daylight down the mid Atlantic. Usual chirpy CW signals, trick as usual is 
to back your power down until your CW signal sounds good. The bird hears 
quite well and I was able to make a Q5 QSO with N4ZQ with power backed all 
the way down to 5 watts (11 el uplink ant), even with the bird less than 10 
degree above the horizon.
