Hi
Once again nothing heard from Delphi over NZ on the 2041UT 36deg fully sunlit pass. Good signals from SEEDS, CUTE1.7 and even chirpy COMPASS.
I note that stations reporting no signal today are all reporting on descending node passes while good signal reports are once again reporting on ascending node passes.
Unless Delphi is turning off Southbound best guess would be an antenna squint effect. Are any stations reporting reception on Southbound passes?

Hi Alan and the list,
I think I can confirm your idea about ascending node passes. Yesterday evening, I heard for my first ascending pass starting at about 19.50 UTC and the signal was very good (about S5 sometimes) with circular polarization changes, so I was able to decode some TLM frames for the first time....
Long life to Delfi-C3!
