Drew,

The 1921 UTC pass over the continental USA, a pass that
went virtually over my head here in central Arizona,
sounded like a normal AO-91 pass. I turned the satellite
when the satellite was up a couple of degrees from the
horizon after my AOS time, and it was transmitting for
the rest of the pass here in Arizona. I was using my TH-D72
HT & Elk. I didn't have my SDR receiver going, but it
looks like stations across the continental USA picked up
telemetry. I posted my MP3 recording from the pass in
my Dropbox space http://dropbox.wd9ewk.net/ - look in the
"Satellite_Audio-2019" folder, and then find the file
"20190430-1921UTC-AO91-DM43bl.mp3".

Next pass here is very shallow around 2100 UTC. If I have
a break, I'll give it a try.

73!
