UO-11

Hi,With reference to UO-11 and comments from Graham ( VE3GTV ) about monitoring the satellite.Please also note that the frequency is 145.826 Mhz, and the satellite may be "OFF" due to the timer cycle which is approx every ten and a half (10.5 ) days.The late Clive Wallis from Amsat-UK was great supporter of the satellite and posted out monthly reports. He has been greatly missed for the news but the satellite continuesto operate, pleased to report after very long life.Decoding software and reports are also available from the web site of Mike (DK3WN) - The satellite status is also of course available on the Amsat-NA web pages. RegardsKen EatonGW1FKY

There are also a few observations that seem to have very noticeable signals - but no decodes. Please do let us know how it goes. --Roy K3RLD
