Agreed! I got a real strong signal yesterday in New Hampshire on a 20 or 30
degree pass and  just before eclipse.  In fact I was watching as it went
into eclipse.  I say watching because I was actually looking at the
waterfall on SDR-Radio and trying to feed the BPSK-1000 into the telemetry
program with a physical audio cable.  I had no luck making that work, but I
could see strong FM and SSTV, and I could *see* the SSB even if I could not
decode it.
