[amsat-bb] Re: Straight key night (SKN) on AO-07!

Hi Diane, Bill and Dean.  Finally made it through on AO-07.  Bill, our
CW contact was really a fluke.  I heard you calling CQ on CW but all I
had to work with was a SSB/AM/FM rig.  So I put the thing on AM and 
worked you keying the mike button!  I don't expect to win any SKN awards
using THAT system.  Only five watts out to five elements-circular.  
     The station Hawaii is AL7CR, Dean, but I missed where in Hawaii he
was.  Sorry I might have stepped in a bit early, Bill.  I finally worked
him with only three tenths degree elevation.  Cliff K7RR
