Hi Andy,
Yes, ANDE-1 is awake as I heard her on the 09:43 pass yesterday and decoded the beacon and message packet from her direct, and also a station in POLAND?
As for findu, there has to be a SATGATE open at the time of the pass and this isn’t always the case so they won't get passed.
Hope this helps.. although I couldn't hit it on this pass, but I am only using 5watts into a 4 element handheld beam.
