This thread has most of the details, as well as a screen grab of this
afternoon's attempt.   I'm wondering if I am actually getting in just fine,
but the RTL-SDR dongle is just too pathetic to pick it up.   But if that's
the case, then it would mean that the other signals are blasting into the
transponder.   Did anybody have a qso stomped on this afternoon by "K3RLD
testing"?
