Im not sure if any one has had an intermittent reception of FO-29's Dnlnk other than myself, I plan on trying to see if I can hear the transponder again this afternoon as I have a really high pass from 19:14z to 19:34 z with max el of 71 deg. As per my SatPc32 its either orbit # 52848 or 54849 I will be sending dashes at 40 watts until it reaches about 10 deg ele, then ill go to 2 watt mode. I will try and keep the Downlink freq near 435.850. Unfortunatally I have no way of recording properly.
Listen in from 19:14z - 19:34 again.. if I do hear my Downlink.. and its not on 435.850 I will qsy my uplink to get on frequency.
