AO-27 Pass…

January 5, 2008 | Amateur Radio | By: Mark VandeWettering

First time I worked AO-27 in the new year, caught regulars WA8SME, VA7MG, WA6KYR (who I didn’t recognize, but I worked him on December 19th), KI6IUJ, and WX7P.

The audio starts pretty raspy, you can barely hear me coming back through the downlink, but later, it gets MUCH stronger. This seems typical. WA8SME has assured me that I’m getting through fine at these lower elevations, but I can’t hear myself very well. Perhaps a preamp is in my future.
