Mode S worked nicely for me on AO-13, but by the time AO-40 was in orbit, I had S9 interference that appeared at random times for several hours at a time.

One thing is certain, P3E will provide a real world test of S-band down
link capability. It will then be perfectly clear if the decision to delete it from the Eagle was a wise choice.

Hi Mike, K9QHO
The real world test of the S-band downlink capability has been already
made
using AO40 and by my personal experience I would like to add to it the S-band downlink of OSCAR-13 and this is why the S-band downlink will be used again for P3E
