How much power is AO51 currently running? It sure sounded good on the 2200UTC pass yesterday-much more solid receive here than I was getting for AO27 or SO 50.

I will be trying to work ao-51 during the ILLW this weekend (20-21Aug). I havent operated satellites since ao40, which is a little while ago... I will be using the usual an arrow antenna and ft60r. I am having problems finding the frequencies to tx and rx on. It seems that there have been some changes made and different sites give me different frequencies I should be using. I think the Tx is 145.880. I think the Rx frequency is 435.500. Can anyone please give me a definitive answer? I have only just got the antenna and radio working as a unit in the last 24 hours. I will be operating from Cape Schanck, just south of Melbourne Australia, under the callsign VK3EMF. Thanks Joe VK3BKI _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.
