These are my N/S over the north pole passes for July 10/11 UTC
10-Jul 01:40 E 96° 27° 10-Jul 03:14 WNW 289° 11° 11-Jul 01:15 E 97° 13° 11-Jul 02:48 W 285° 21°
Elevations are not very high, so it might work with my fixed elevation setup. If you could, then yes, please. I know for sure the guys in Japan would love to track this.

It was necessary as a consequence of our original imaging license from NOAA. We could not image anything other than the surface of the earth, and since the satellite is stabilized with a bar magnet, the camera points up in the southern hemisphere. 45 minutes on an ascending pass means the camera is off by the time it is pointed the wrong way. That's the reason as far as I remember it. Jerry or Burns might be along to correct me if my memory is faulty.
You may have some shot at receiving the signal as the ascending passes over the US go over the pole and down over China and western Japan. I can add some of those passes if you will be ready to copy.

Any reason for this limited setup? Would love to get some 9k6 frames.

Why not leave the camera on for an entire day or two so people around the world can enjoy AO-92 in another way? 73 de Hans BX2ABT On 07/08/2019 12:46 AM, Andrew Glasbrenner via AMSAT-BB wrote: > > > July 10 and 11 we'll be running the camera on AO-92 in support of the ARRL > Teachers Institute.
