Is this the one that was "stuck" in the deployment cannister? If so, CONGRATS! I've got some serious antenna work planned for this weekend, so maybe I'll try and snag some telemetry. 73, Jim KQ6EA

ANDE-MAA is alive and well. We have been communicating with her today, and signals are comparable to PCSAT-1. I even activated the voice synthesizer for a test today. Here is the good news from Cheyenne Mountain:
Just wanted to give you an update for our tracking
of
ANDE. It appears as if we are currently tracking
five
pieces from the ANDE deployment. SCC# 29663 is
still
the ID on record and we have built four additional analyst satellites with the remaining tracks.
The pieces are separating quite nicely, but we're waiting on a couple additional SSN sensors tracks
before
we catalog the remaining pieces. I'll try to pass
along
SCC ID numbers for the other four pieces as soon as I have been informed.
