As someone new to satellite operations, I’m finding out that it’s extremely helpful to not only check the AMSAT status page before an upcoming pass, but also check reports from AMSAT and others on twitter. That helps to cut down on the confusion around schedule or mode changes. For example, helps to know that AO-92 was put into L mode an hour before the next pass you’re planning to work. Just thoughts to myself this first week or so on the air.
