What's up with PCSAT (NO-44)? I see some packets digi-ed by W3ADO-1.
I haven't had time to monitor it lately, but if it's operating, I still have an operating goal in mind: 2-way satellite from a moving motorcycle. :-)
Nothing has changed really. PCSAT (W3ADO-1) is operational on all passes when it is in the mid-day sun. That means if there are any passes within a few hours of your local noon, then it is probably useable for a few packets. You can see its downlink on the http://pcsat.aprs.org web page at any time.
Checking there, I see many many users and packets over the last 24 hours...
Enjoy!. Also ANDE-1 is on the same frequency and should also be available on 145.825 MHz, though weaker.
