Hi!
On the JAVA 21:09:59 ( WEB 21:16:02 ) Analog ON over NA this afternoon I monitored the switch to digital that follows the 7 minute Analog segment and Analog OFF occurred at 21:16:42. The Java version predicted 21:16:59 - out by only 17 seconds.
I would conclude that the Java version is Okay and the Web is wrong.
For what it's worth, the AO-27 web site was providing the same schedule as the Java program between mid-September (last time the schedule data was uploaded to the satellite) and the end of October. Early this month, possibly on the 1st, the 6-minute discrepancy between schedules appeared. Other than the fact the AO-27 onboard clock runs fast (noted on the AO-27 web site), it appears that the Java program consistently provides the most-accurate schedule.
Issues related to the schedule aside, AO-27 still sounds good. It's been nice to have this satellite working since January, even with its limitations. Its passes fit in nicely between the AO-51 morning and evening passes, with a good turnout for almost every pass.
73!
