AO-91 for October 7, 2019 at 12:17 pm CST

Did you try to make some contacts on the amateur radio satellite AO-91 today? I made a recording of the entire pass for you all to hear yourselves.

You can tell by the audio of some that they were listening on a radio as they were transmitting. Their signals had that reverb effect as the audio coming out of their secondary radio was picked up in their mic. I know that many of you don't have that luxury and wonder if you are getting out at all. Well, now you can listen for yourself in my Satellite CafeCasts that I will share from time to time for your enjoyment. Please leave a voice message if you heard yourself and at what point in time in the podcast.  Until next time,...HAM IT UP! I'll probably be listening.

73, KD5DLJ (soon to be K5DCC) in the beautiful Ozarks of northwest Arkansas.
