[amsat-bb] AO-85 "reset" during pass

Hi all,

An unusual thing happened during AO-85 last pass over Europe, at about 14:20 UTC or so. The transponder stopped working and the satellite went silent for about a minute. Then came the voice announcement in the lines of "Hi! This is radio amateur satellite Fox 1", and some seconds later the transponder started working again. I'm sorry that I have no telemetry recording of the pass to try to see what happened.
