At 2244 had a 22 degree pass with strong signals on the HO loop. The highest temperature was the -A PPT6 panel temp at 74 deg C. RF temp was 58 C which is less then the 60+ observed yesterday. Satellite was in high power mode the entire pass.
Keps were only a half day old, but I still had to do some tweaking to keep the telemetry in the decoder's bandpass.
