Hi Clint!

Glad to have been a part of it.  Hopefully that radio you just picked
up worked well for you.  I was fighting a pass where AO-51 was
just above the mountains to my west, so I apologize for not
picking you up when you first called.  Thanks to John N7JK for
mentioning during the early part of the pass that you were calling
me.

Very true!  The demonstration can go a long way in breaking down
some of the myths of satellite operating.
