 We can take this off line..., but you both seem to be correct.  I guess Brad meant "can listen via satellite", and I had implied that the simplex ops cannot hear if they double with another.  Its like a pile up in a HF contest, so no worries, learning something new every time !!

Uh, no (at least most of the time).  If I'm in southern California uplinking to a satellite  over Arizona, a guy operating simplex on the uplink in New Mexico is NOT going to hear me.
