Hi Peter.
The satellite is only in transponder mode when it is in eclipse, with the beacon on low power.
In full sunlight it is in beacon mode only.

Dear Felloe Satellite Hams
I've been listening to AO-73 Telemetry beacon for about 2 weeks now and never hear any radio contact going on.
Is there any activity on the new satellite or is that mode not functional at this time?
Thanks for any help.
