[amsat-bb] Re: Terrestrial repeater interference to AO-27

[Bob Stewart]

I heard some random non-sat related chatter recently on AO-27,
as well as some odd blocking on SO-50.  I haven't gone back in 
monitor mode, though.  If it starts to be a big problem again,
I suppose can start recording the "good" pass on AO-27 like
last time.  Good point about CTCSS, Drew.
