Thanks Mark

There is a pretty good pass for me at 00:48, so I'll give it another
try....otherwise, I'll make you a good deal on a 440 Moxon turnstile !!!

73, Ted

Hi Ted,

Glad to hear you are trying to work AO-51 and experimenting.

A good place to check for a recent report of most amateur radio satellites
is here:

It looks like AO-51 has been operational, so you might review your system
again.  Sometimes it's the little things...other times it's something major!

Best luck and 73,
