SO-50 was working fine when I was on it, yesterday afternoon. I'd guess you
needed to activate it by transmitting on 145.850 with a pl tone of 74.4. I
had to do that only once that I can remember though, on a relatively quiet
pass.

Greetings all!

Could anyone tell me whether SO-50 is operating at the moment? I understand
that it needs "switching on" but is that down to the Control Operator or the
user? It never seems to be active over Europe!

Thanks for any help
