A pass of SO-50….

I hadn’t worked SAUDISAT 1C (aka Saudi Oscar 50, or SO-50) in quite some time. My recollection was that it was a trickier satellite to work than AO-51, and this pass proved that my recollections were correct. I had significant problems with deep fades. Still, I managed to exchange calls with WD9EWK, K0KU, and N7EDK. Here’s the recording.

(I was working this with my TH-D7A HT and my Arrow Antenna).
