RE: [amsat-bb] AO-7??

["Reicher, James" <JReicher@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Remember that AO7 has Mode C, which is a very low-power mode, 70cm up/2M
down.  Hard to hear.

Bob,
I heard myself calling CQ from 0150 to 0200. Using 3 watts into a small 
yagi I was about an S5  to the horizon, although the signal was choppy 
and there seemed to be a some QRM across most of the passband.
Keep trying. Hope to work you soon.
