Hi All,
We are receiving and reading multiple reports that AO-51 is OFF, since about 1400 utc today.
Additional reports will be appreciated, especially to note if the 435.150 transmitter is active or not; if ON, it should be in 9k6 packet mode.
It will be a few more hours (around 2100utc) before the bird is in the footprint of a command station, so we'll hope for the best (a quick reset after a voltage trip).
73,
