[amsat-bb] SO-50 Acquisition

Hi all,

 

We had a northerly pass of SO-50 earlier today and I was unable to switch
the timer on, get any response, or hear anyone else.

 

I used the 74.4 Hz sub tone to arm the timer but nothing. I have 100 Watts
available to steerable beams, so signal strength is not the issue.

Is this bird difficult to open?

 

Thanks

 

Peter
