Hi Umesh!
It was nice to hear you this morning from your event, along
with Dan AC9E at his hamfest in Las Cruces NM. It is fun to
hear other demonstrations on a pass. The crowd with me
in Sierra Vista AZ enjoyed the demonstration. One member
of my audience listened to the 145.880 MHz AO-92 downlink
on his own radio with its stock duckie antenna.
73!
