I've had some contact with the SatSat author who said AO-85 comes from the AMSAT website (which is not too surprising since that's the only place it exists :) Trying to check with him about the exact URL he is using. I also don't know whether Satsat itself goes to the website or if he (or someone) assembles the info for the app somewhere else.

I'll certainly write to the author, but Ed's comments about ISS Detector makes be wonder if there is not some Keps source that both of these are using that is the root cause. As I say, I checked the AMSAT keps (and I thought that was the only source for AO-85) but if there is another place, I'd like to known

Interesting. Doesn’t appear on ISS Detector either.

I'm not sure if this has to do with AO-85 being off for so long, but
does
anyone else using the SatSat iPhone app to track satellites find that
AO-85
is listed but with no tracking info? I checked the AMSAT keps page and AO-85 is still there.

AO-85 was commanded on again about 1200Z this morning. Repeater is on,
but
so far no DUV telemetry, so IHU must not be working. Also, repeater
isn't
dropping between uplinks as it should in this mode. We left it on,
feel
free to use while you can. Reports too please!

Mark, N8MH and I did some testing tonight on AO-85 as it is almost
back
in
full sun. The transmitter and COR repeater came on, but not the telemetry/IHU. Repeater sounded good but stayed keyed without an
uplink
signal. We shut the transmitter back off since that was an unexpected state. We'll do some more testing tomorrow.
