Patrick,
Indeed. Unfortunately, there have only been a small number of stations on.
Of those, half were either not hearing the downlink, the correct downlink,
or were a Mexican cab company, complete with phone patch. Perhaps it might
be time to start using the PL on days with mode V uplink, since that would
not be the limiting factor for equipment. I had been wondering why it
seemed I was blocked at time on with southern passes in the past, even
though I had a good RX signal.
On the earlier pass, there were finally only two of us wondering where
everybody else was. It is a great mode, with deep but quick and infrequent
QSB.
