Hi Mike,
Had a Compass pass here about six or seven minutes into eclipse. Sent commands and first 2 were acknowledged but it was low on the horizon by this time so maybe it was too low for any further commands to be received. Received a beacon as follows. Solar panel currents seem a bit strange given that it was in eclipse!
