This Saturday we had the CW challenge on QO-100.
This was running from Sat. 1800Z to Sun. 0600Z.
I started close to the 1800 mark, working the stations as I found them "on the dial". A bit tricky, because I use completely separate transmitter and receiver systems, so the transmitter has to be tuned when I find a signal on the receiver. This is a bit slow, but it works.
After running up the dial for the stations I found a frequency and started my own CQ.
My signal on the satellite is not the strongest, but I can run SSB comfortably, so CW is not a problem, my signal can be seen on the waterfall of SDR receivers.
I had good fun and worked 35 unique stations in on/off activity of a total of 5 hours.
