[amsat-bb] PSAT still going and going...

PSAT seems alive and well, supporting both APRS digipeating on 145.825 and PSK-31 on 435.350 FM downlink (28 Mhz uplink).

I love a satellite that needs no care most of the time (unless some of our other ground stations are doing it and I’m clueless as usual.)

Anyway, I just checked the downlink page http://pcsat.findu.com and see a handful of users over the last two weeks since I last checked. Orbit clock “s#058612” shows 586 orbits and 12 minutes since last reset, and that is about 40 days. I do notice that most telemetry is coming down in the dark (S# sun vectors mostly 0000’s) so it is in the dark over the northern hempiphere these days. But seems to be holding up.
