ANDE 1 and 2 Report Dec 16 2007: still all working fine ! ========================================================= - ANDE now getting to only 210 km height - Footprint getting smaller - AND: still more and more stations make contacts !! =========================================================
14:35 CET / 50 degrees elevation pass: Was able to logon to ANDE-2 at 20 degrees elevation and set TE 1 (twice, to get value confirmed). Result: ANDE-2 works fine, TE 1 was set to 10 seconds successfully !

13:05 CET pass: ANDE is now flying faster, so less and less time is available each pass. Tried to logon to ANDE-2 during the 78 degrees elevation pass,but only after 2 attempts I got logged on. However, I was not able to submit the TE 1 command on time. My link got broken as can be seen below:
