[amsat-bb] EO-79 SAT

[ingejack at cox.net]

Was  on the 18:55 UTC pass of EO-79. Signals very strong however there were no other stations heard during the complete pass. Was wondering why other people are not utilizing this satellite ?? Are they afraid of manual tuning of the Doppler or is it just too difficult for them to keep up with the Bird ?? even though it is hard to track and maintain Doppler it is still a great satellite to work, Nice footprint and strong signals. Was on the satellite many times in the past with same results.. Nobody heard !!   JACK-KC7MG  DM42
