It was one of the busiest passes I have encountered and it isn't even Saturday yet !!
Heard many new calls and tried calling back but got stepped on, probably from guys operating simplex, finally got N7AGF when the bird was almost LOS. No worries, it was a fun learning experience.

Drew,
Today's 1941 UTC AO-91 pass over much of the continental USA sounded fine.
Some stations early in the pass, then many more as North Dakota and N7AGF
came into the footprint. Along with the activity on the FM repeater, the
telemetry page shows several stations uploaded telemetry during the pass.
My audio from this pass is in my Dropbox space http://dropbox.wd9ewk.net/
(folder "Satellite_Audio-2019", then look for the filename starting with
20190501). I was using the same TH-D72/Elk combination today that I used
yesterday.
It appears the reset you did to AO-91 yesterday fixed the issues. The
two passes yesterday, along with the pass earlier today, have sounded
normal.
73!
