Join me for a fairly busy pass of Ham Radio FM Satellite PO-101. This is a great UHF uplink FM satellite, with really good coverage and clear audio. I wish it was used more honestly.

Good pass Rob. Kevin AD2DD is always a good contact. Also have a few HF POTA contacts with him. W4CQD is a club from a university in Alabama. I have a few contacts with them as well. Good to see schools taking interest in this hobby. You sounded good as always Rob.
Thank you Sir! Yeah I agree I have had several schools and youth group contacts lately and it’s great to hear. I’ve made a bunch of POTA contacts with him also. I have you and Damon back to back on a POTA activation video buried in the channel.
Enjoyed the video and I enjoyed making contact with you through the ISS. Never had much luck with P101 have to give it a try sometime.

Absolutely Steve! You’ve come a long way buddy. Very solid signal on the ISS! You should give PO101 a try. It’s definitely weaker but even the internal preamp will bring it up nicely
Just pulling my satellite station together again, hope to catch you on air!
Awesome! Congratulations I will keep an ear out for you! 73
Great stuff buddy! 👍
Thank you Sir! 73
PO-101 is just as crazy in the USA as over Europe. We get QSOs in multiple languages, English, French and German!
Coming from this side of the pond perspective that sounds amazing!! We have Spanish speaking and English but that’s it. It’s actually a really calm bird in comparison over here. You should take a peek at my ISS videos😳that’s chaos. Thanks for watching and commenting I really appreciate it! 73!!!
