Hi Mike,
14:32 utc on Jan 22, 2010 we copied the beacon from Sister Lakes Elementary school in Southwest Michigan (EN62). We had a maximum elevation of 10.5°.
My third grade students were excited to listen today to see if Compass-1 survived. The boys and girls let out a cheer when we heard the beacon!

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! 73, Mike DK3WN
