[amsat-bb] Re: COMPASS-1 Close Approach

I will try to do the same. I have a borrowed computer here for the time being, so don't have all my usual software complement installed, but will cobble something together.

Mike (& All),

Since I will be at work before the 1427z pass time tomorrow, I will setup my station to track and record this pass from Michigan and report my findings as soon as I am able to review.

Thanks for the heads up.

All,

United States Joint Space Operations Center (JSpOC) has identified
predicted close approach between COMPASS-1 (#32787) and SICH-1
(#23657).

Jan 22 14:27 UTC  - predicted distance: 429 m (overall)

Can someone listen to the COMPASS-1 beacon (437.275 MHz CW) after
this time, please?
It’s the first US East-Coast pass on this day. Any reports are
very appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
