Hi Drew!
The Sumbandila team asked that we only request passes while the satellite is illuminated. Currently, the evening passes are only possible after the satellite has moved far enough north to be in the sun.
OK, thanks! For the time it was on last night, it was working well without needing that PL tone. There were only 5 or 6 stations on that 0310 UTC pass, and all were able to get through and make QSOs while I was able to hear the strong downlink.
Have you heard anything about a schedule for the weekend?
73!
