Hi folks,

More from a couple of passes over CM98

01:05z pass start, 8/22/11 66 degree pass

Apparently in high power mode.

MET ?? >QSB> probably 45min IHU Temp = +31c Control Panel temp = +38c Battery = 36.06v Current = -8ma

MET 47 min IHU Temp = +32c Control Panel temp = +39c Battery = 35.94v Current = - ?? <QSB>

MET 49 min IHU temp = +32c Control Panel temp = +40c Battery = 35.94v Current = -8ma

After the kids' chanting, the satellite turned off for 2 min.

SSTV, greetings, etc...

MET 54 min IHU Temp = +34c Control Panel temp = +24c (did I hear that right? Was +40 a few minutes earlier! Need parity bits on the eardrums Battery = <QSB> Current = -20ma

After more greetings and a live SSTV picture the satellite turned off again through LOS

--------------------------- Next pass: 17 degrees

02:38z start, 8/22/11

MET 47 IHU Temp +32c Control Panel temp = +44c Battery = 35.93v Current = -20ma

MET 49 IHU Temp = +33c Control panel temp = 45c Battery = 35.90v Current = -16ma
