When can we expect to see AO-92 L band activations on the weekend again? When it was moved to Wednesdays, it was touted as temporary. How long is temporary?
Usage of L band on Wednesdays is minimal at best. AO-92 (to the best of my knowledge) is the only amateur satellite with an L band uplink. I would think as more amateurs get Icom 9700s that they might like to give it a try.
I understand not everyone can be pleased but a majority of people work during the week or have other family duties, such as childrens’ school nights that might limit their access to the satellite during the week.
Can we expect the “temporary” Wednesday activations to return to the weekends any time soon? After all, all AMSAT members should have a fair chance at using the L band uplink to test/use their equipment. It can always go back to Wednesdays after a while.
