When Don called for echolink checkins, I was able to get a transmit button, and called out my callsign, and name, but no one seemed to hear me.
 
I could hear everyone else.
 
I tried again to checkin later in the meeting, but again, no one seemed to be able to hear me.
 
 
Wanted to let you all know I had my back surgery yesterday, and am home tonight.
 
I'm in some discomfort, and am limited in what I can do for the present, but looking forward to some relief in the next few days.
 
Cheers,
