The PSAT2-1 pass last night came up to 50 degrees here in Southern
California; this is my first successful DTMF contact with both the voice
response TTS on 148.980 MHz and APRS packet on 145.825 MHz using the Yeasu
FT2DR.

I am not running doppler offsets nor Az/El motor; so this was a single shot
at the top of the pass.

Here is a picture of the packet on my radio since the SatGates did not
share this with APRS-IS:

My callsign is listed on the summary beacon page which renders the last 9
callsigns heard by PSAT-1 DTMF:

I wish it had also made it to the individual packet page:

But, there appears to be an issue with the SatGates in my area not iGating
these new DTMF packets.
