ANDE is now at ~202 km height.
On my website I updated the plotted height, and its perfectly following the shape of the predictions. Yet, a few dates behind.

From the graph I expect Dec 24 or so as the last day
(based on the fact that RAFT last day was when it had reached 175 km).
Also today QSOs have been made. I see DD6UBW and OK1DNT for example.
