Based on my observations these eclipses will increase in \nduration until they reach a peak around the Summer equinox and then they \nwill start to taper off until the last eclipse occurs at approximately \n0245UTC on August 2, 2013.\n\nIf the past is any indication of future events, this could mean erratic \nbehavior from AO7. Last year for an extended period of time, AO7 was \ncoming up in Mode B every day. I do not know of any rhyme or reason to \nwhich mode it may come up in but I plan to monitor AO7 close this year \nto see if we have another extended \"Mode B\" period.\n\nI will try to keep the StarCom BB up to date on the status of AO7 during \nthis time. I would suppose the worst case scenario would be if we had an \nextended \"Mode A\" condition.\n\nThe dates are 05/21/2013 until 08/02/2013 the eclipse's start at 15 to \n20 second periods up to about 3 minutes in duration at their peak. I am \nnot sure how much total loss of sunlight is required cause the satellite \nto start acting differently, I know the batteries are totally gone but I \ndo not know if there is any type capacitive storage that may retain a \nvoltage in critical systems on the satellite. If anyone has any \ninformation on that I would be interested.\n\nThat is my AO7 status report for now! Stay Tuned!\n\n73 All FRM;\nK4FEG\nEM55aj84ta\n", "attachments": [] }
