[amsat-bb] QRM on AO-7 Mode B

[Emily Clarke <w0eec@xxxxxxxxx>]

We got a lot of QRM on AO-7 Mode B tonight.  It started out OK pointing 
south from CM-87 but really degraded pointing north.  The reason was many 
stations on the wrong sideband.

After some quick thinking and help from some pictures by VE7WFG we knew why 
- the Aurora bounce folks were working 432 on USB (opposite from AO-7's LSB 
uplink) pointing north.

Bills pictures are at http://www.billgreene.ca/gallery/

73,

Emily
