Anyone near Kingston Ontario or Watertown, NY that can contact VE3FFR?
His email is not listed with QRZ and I need to ask him to shut down his PCSAT beacon. This would reduce the load on PCSAT so that maybe I can get a command in to get control and maybe make a recovery.
Next recovery effort will be dawn passes on Wed 28 Dec 2011.
PCSAT is almost responding. I only need to get one exchange of packets successfully to do a recovery.
We need everyone to turn off all transmitters and reserve PCSAT power so we can complete the command/ack sequence.
You may continue to work the ISS, but ONLY if it is in view and is operating. Otherwise, please, no transmissions on 145.825. No unattended beacons... Adding also to the 145.825 channel QRM is UO-11 that appears to also have come back to life.
Thanks,
Bob, WB4APR
