>From now on I'm just going to put my call out there on the satellite and
ANY station that also puts their call out, will be considered a contact...
(Tongue in cheek)
I live in RI. If I try to work a station in AK or HI, I have to make sure I
get their call AND grid correct, otherwise its a busted contact and a
struggle to work them again. Using a recorder is good for logbook updates,
but if I were to realize I got their call wrong, you bet I'm emailing them
to set up a sked for a redo! It's the same thing for HF contacts...
Im not here to argue, just answer a question. You're going to do what
you're comfortable with. It's just a hobby - some people forget that. You
didn't hear the call or grid right the first time? Work 'em again - it's
moe funner that way!

I've been Roving for quite a few years. It takes a lot of time and effort
and $$$ to activate some of the Grids I've been to. My joy is to give out
Grids to those who need them. It's all done gladly and willingly.
This is what I consider a "Good Contact".?
1 - I set up and wait for the Pass and announce my Call/Grid when I hear
myself.
2 - A station calls me with My Call and Their Call.
3 - I respond to them with Their Call & My Call/Grid
4 - That's a "Good Contact" - they heard me & responded, I heard them &
responded
5 - Contact logged, next station calls.
The Pass is copied on my Sony ICD-BX140 Digital Recorder via a mini-mic
placed in one side of my headphones which catches both sides of the QSO. Then,
when I return to where I'm staying, I transcribe the QSOs for uploading to
LoTW. If there is doubt with a Call, I'll listen to the recording again to
verify.
This has worked very well for me for over 125 different Grid activations and
many several times as I travel. I don't recall any complaints, however, they
would
all be handled appropriately(!).

P.S. The Digital Recorder can be seen in a pic on my QRZ Page.

Yep, definitely more repeater stuff on the 15:20 pass this morning (early
in the pass... it's cleared up now). No call signs heard this morning,
but they were gabbing about corona virus on sea vessels.

Bob,
If you're using the recording to:
1) Write down who you worked. after the fact since logging on the fly can
be difficult... GREAT!
2) Verify you said the call right... GREAT!
3) Re-Verify what gird they said so you can mark it off the list....GREAT!
If you are using the recording to clean it up, playing CSI and "enhancing"
the file and having to play it over and over to figure out the call after
the fact since you didn't hear it live, or didn't say it correctly back..
then that's a busted call and that would not be a good contact.
But hey... we all can log whatever we feel like and make VUCC/488/DX awards
as "easy" as we would like.....
End of the Day log whatever you want... Takes to 2 to tango.. errr QSL.

I got a recording with some mostly clear call signs. I?m in the process of
trying to contact them. Any further reports or recordings would be helpful.

About ARISS:
?
Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) is a cooperative
venture of international amateur radio societies and the space agencies that
support the International Space Station (ISS).? In the United States,
sponsors are the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT), the American
Radio Relay League (ARRL), the ISS National Lab and National Aeronautics and
Space Administration (NASA). The primary goal of ARISS is to promote
exploration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEAM)
topics by organizing scheduled contacts via amateur radio between crew
members aboard the ISS and students in classrooms or public forms. Before
and during these radio contacts, students, educators, parents, and
communities learn about space, space technologies, and amateur radio. For
more information, see www.ariss.org.
