Now it is 2 hours later: and I see on pcsat.aprs.org packets captured by PE1ITR are now about * 5 minutes early! ***
Latest keps were dated 1400z on the 28th which is really old now.
Be there 10 minutes early and point beam to AOS and wait...

Nothing heard at 0300z. RAFT is toast I assume. Last packet captured was by PE1ITR at 01:45:10

Well, I always feel a little melancholy when an OSCAR re-enters, but it sure feels different when you have soldered some components onto it!
A big big thank you to all the folks who received telemetry, and especially to those who commanded the transponder on and took data. We will continue having fun analyzing it.
