A couple of people have responded to me, but it's not clear that the
geography and geometry is obvious to everyone.
>From all I've read, the maximum distance anyone has worked AO-27 is about
3300 miles. This distance is limited by the altitude of the satellite. (My
calculation of the AO-27 footprint diameter at apogee is 3775 miles, but
that would imply a zero-duration window with a satellite at the exact
midpoint. 3300 miles seems reasonable to allow time for a short QSO.)
Guam is about 3800 miles WSW of Honolulu, so even that path is not possible,
let alone anything on North America. Possibilities within a 3000 mile range
appear to be places like Japan, China, Taiwan, Philippines, maybe Australia,
etc.

George, sorry I didn't see this until now, Tuesday morning almost 3:00 UTC.
My email address is <mervynhecht@xxxxx.xxx>. Please email me a pass that
you think will work for us. I have business meetings today out of the house
from
1900 z to 2400z, so today might not work as well as most days.
Thursday April 19th I will be home all day so if you suggest a pass that
day, or two,
it would be great. Please email me direct.
