Right in time when I was giving a live demo to a 10 year old kid

Nice to see Greencube / IO-117 back to  digipeating from 06.00 this morning.

The satellite was over Europe at the time so it looks like it was a direct command from Italy rather than an on-board scheduler

No schedule as far as I know.

It was off for a couple of days around the 13th of May but it was 'reset'? and back to normal by the 15th.

It's a little unclear who can uplink commands to GreenCube / IO-117.  The owners are S5Labs, but their primary mission was concluded last fall.
AMSAT Italy are also listed as partners, but I'm not sure how far that involvement goes.

I wondered if anyone on the list is decoding telemetry. The battery voltage is normally 8.2V. A quick look at the tlm may reveal if there is an issue, or if the satellite has been commanded to telemetry only.

I got on Greencube for the first time on Wednesday and made a bunch of contacts. On Friday Greencube was only sending telemetry and is still in telemetry only mode.

Is it normal for the digipeater to be off for several days at a time? Is there a schedule?
