It seems that most reports of good Delfi reception relate to northbound passes. So far it appears that Delfi has not been heard in VK/ZL during a number of Southbound sunlit passes despite a number of stations listening and good reception of SEEDS and Cute1.7. Could this be a spacecraft orientation issue or has Delfi just a bit anti Southern hemisphere?

It is possible that Alan is right? I have listened to two good sun-lit passes without hearing a thing from DelfiC3. I wonder what the telemetry is saying about orientation and power system performance? I like it when a new bird presents us with a puzzle :-)
