SO-50
by Peter Portanova 22 Nov '10

22 Nov '10

Bob, SO-50 is operating, however it is a difficult bird to track, it's in a lower LEO orbit, hence the Doppler moves more quickly than AO-51, the antenna aboard SO-50 is a 1/4 wave vertical antenna I have attached a screen shot of the satellite status page, if you would like to verify you're observations, you can get a synopsis of the satellite activity. 73- Pete WB2OQQ www.massapequanyweather.com http://www.qrz.com/db/WB2OQQ?

I know that sometimes I fall behind on info, but is SO-50 working nominally? I am having problems hearing it. I know that A0-51 has a differing schedule. TNX Bob, WA9JDR

Hi Everyone, Tyler – K5TDN is going to be operating from the EM06/07 gridline on the Nov21, 1918z AO27 pass. He may operate from this boundary on different passes throughout the weekend, but this is the only definite pass. Tyler will also be operating from EM14 beginning this Wednesday (24) through Friday the 26 brfor heading back home. Hopefully travel will go well, and everyone that needs these grids will get them. 73! Zack KD8KSN
