Right then - enough satellite playing!
I seem to have SO-50 fairly consistently now- workable passes, a couple each time- still deaf east tho. But i have been monitoring Gpredict for days now, and enough!
So perhaps just FT8 if i do radio today and a bit of cooking. A movie perhaps and gummie bears!

Yet.. i am still watching!
...watching.....hard pushed to get more greyline than currently,

Still very much a baby at this, but since i put the new antenna up 24 in the log.
So far only 6 from SO50, the rest ISS.
You can see i have blocks to the east- hopefully i can figure out northern passes of SO50 and get a few more there.
I did hear a SM station yesterday, which was a first.

As I wait to see if I can work anything of note in the 70cm ft8 thing in 20mins, I chow down on my spiced sausage & bean shepherds pie, topped with carrot and turnip mash.

EA3B, EA2BW and EA5FNE in the log on that SO50 pass.
Pleased with that - Go me!
Hitting a cereal box in space and hearing it's 250mW UHF transmitter pleases me greatly!
