the radio.

There I was standing on the side of the road on a breezy afternoon around
1930z. I had a piece of 3/4? 6061 in one hand and my PTT switch in the other
with only my IC-910H at minimum power to keep me warm. I was listening to
the sweet sound of noise at 145.938 MHz with an occasional ?one two? to keep
my manual tuning on track while I awaited for the sweet DX to get into the
footprint.
Then you entered the scene pounding away with your CW and sweeping around
demanding attention. You were as strong as an ox. You were splattering
throughout the whole 60kHz of the passband, how could anyone miss you? And
then as suddenly as you appeared there was utter silence. I mean, with that
much power how could you not bring any bird to it?s knees?
Perhaps we can meet again sometime, maybe try QRP for a less dramatic
entrance and we can have a chance to have a conversation.

There are only a few folks doing SAT-CW on a regular basis.
It shouldn't be difficult to figure out who they might be.
Maybe it's already known and someone talked with the person? and they said
"Take a hike!!".? Or, maybe not.
I can't imagine the person remains unknown.

P.S.? BTW, can you believe AO-7 was launched in 1974? !!!!!!

How is the signal strength? Do we need a gain antenna or is a rubber
duck on an HT enough to get in?

Maybe next time I think about doing a trip to a never before heard grid I
should tell everyone who wants it to ?take a hike?. There are a few selfish
morons out there who are reminded time and time again and continue to
disrupt the hobby for the rest of the responsible users out there. It was a
wonderful morning flight down to CO36 this morning before work to hand out
this new grid to a grand total of four people on AO-92 and SO-50. I also
really enjoyed listening to nothing for several minutes to discover AO-7
had been killed by an idiot, ruining the chance for anyone outside the very
limited range of those FM passes to get the grid.

Bob,
I?m not sure if it was a CW regular or just someone using the keyer to find
their downlink. It?s a sad situation really since they would be much more
successful if they perfected hearing the bird first.
It is amazing how old this bird is, and we?re lucky to have a LEO with its
footprint. Its age is all the more reason we need to take care in not
destabilizing it.

This guy has been doing this for quite a while. If you hear him, listen on
the input and see if we can nail down what part of the country he lives in.
Looking at his waterfall signature with an SDR would be a good start. Think
of it as the ultimate fox hunt. Someone must live within 20 miles of him.

Gabe,
The journeys of rovers like yourself and that of AO-7 provide a unique
opportunity. It?s unfortunate to have those opportunities wrecked by lack of
situational awareness. I know I?ve missed you in plenty of DXCC this way to
feel the pain but keep doing what your doing, it?s appreciated.
It?s truly ironic when people mode flip the bird. In their desperate attempt
to make up for lack of hearing they leave behind nothing to hear.
Luckily for me, I was one of the fortunate four this time around with a
chance on SO-50, couldn?t bring myself to yet again disappoint others who
called just seconds after you lost footprint.
73,

morons out there who are reminded time and time again and continue to
disrupt the hobby for the rest of the responsible users out there. It was a
wonderful morning flight down to CO36 this morning before work to hand out
this new grid to a grand total of four people on AO-92 and SO-50. I also
really enjoyed listening to nothing for several minutes to discover AO-7 had
been killed by an idiot, ruining the chance for anyone outside the very
limited range of those FM passes to get the grid.

Does anybody have an SDR recording of this? If the recording
Includes his TCA we can use SARSAT
techniques to determine his location.
If someone has such an SDR recording then please let me know.
