Hey Henk,
Thanks for your reply.
I forgot about that!
Well, I have a pass at 19:06 here in the UK, so have already set the D700 up ready to go, so will give it a go this pass.. It should be low enough to hit with my omni otherwise, will have to get the beam out and the D7 for some other pass.
All the best,
Chris, M0DQO
P.S. Great web site, more upto date then the amsat NA one!

Hi Chris,
ANDE is normally "off" but can be woken up. Now and then it listens and if it hears a signal it will stay awake for one minute.
Full details on how to operate ANDE are at: http://www.ew.usna.edu/~bruninga/ande-raft-ops.html
So indeed, if no-one uses ANDE, you will not hear anything.
ANDE's RX is very sensitive, give it a try, it's quite simple. Success !

Hi All,
Has anyone actually worked or used ANDE over the UK? I have listened for it on a number of passes, but not heard it at all?
Thanks, Chris M0DQP
