I concur with Chris. I cannot thank Mike DK3WN enough for all of the help he has provided my ability to capture and decode telemetry. In fact, without his help, I wouldn't be able to do much with AO-16 and its telemetry...

His occasional posting of telemetry is a good reminder that these birds are alive and working well. He doesn't post every telemetry frame, every day. His posts are periodic and helpful.

So...THANKS Mike :)

Hi,

I don't agree, this is informative and lets us know that these old birds are still there..

Well done Mike on providing this info.

Has anyone here ever considered spiltting the ML in half for this kind of "spam"? I enjoy lurking here but these get old fast.
