> It appears not only is RS-12 in mode K as I reported last night, but RS-13
is simultaneoulsy in mode T.  Brent, VE5SWL, reports a CW QSO with John,
K6YK, at 13:27z, 15m up (21.270) & 2m down (145.870):  "Very good signals
599 on CW with 30 watts into my INV VEE And on down link 5/8 VERT.

uplink at, say 21.280 MHz CW/USB, then listen for people responding to your
call around 145.880 CW/USB (883 at beginning of pass and down to 877 at end
of pass). By general convention, CW below 880 and USB above 880.
