[amsat-bb] Report - HM58 today

[Pedro Sousa]

Hi all,

Unfortunately Marco (CU7BC) had a massive rain cell over his area (the 
kind the temperature drops around 6ºF in 2 minutes) about half way AO-7 
pass. I could hear his whistle trying to lock on the downlink when 
suddenly he vanished.
I was on the frequency with Frank K4FEG and KB1RVT, and called him 
several times. The downlink was very good, and I had a first on SATs for 
me - a "chat" with Frank rather then a quick QSO. I ended up calling 
Marco's cell phone to figure out the rain had caused flooding.
Later on XW-2F there was no contacts from the East Coast. But I got both 
of our CQ calls on tape. Check it out at 
http://plus2.dutrasousa.name/CU7BC.mp3 so you can now know what to 
"look" for.

I'll keep everyone posted of future activities, while I'm still trying 
to get 3 other guys into the birds.
