We've been turning the satellite on, and off, manually on passes over North America when a command station is available. This has generally been the afternoon passes, and only on an as-available basis. Uplink is 145.880, Downlink 435.150.

Hi John, yes was active in that pass, but was working in QRP Frequencies, Up 145.880 Dn 435.150. Was strange because I was trying to hear the activity of ground stations and Ups, several stations were there including N8MH.
But looks like was too soon to celebrate, in the followed pass didn't hear nothing.
Will see what happens next days, and of course the official info

I listened to the 2140z pass today and didn't hear anything. Was it on then?
