Just listened to the 13:00z pass of here in FM07 and nothing heard from the satellite. Could it have crashed again?

It's possible. Hopefully it just hit the low voltage watchdog. I don't have a pass until this afternoon, so would someone on the west coast or elsewhere listen to see if the 435.150 transmitter is on? If 435.150 is still on, we probably just didn't move the power output down far enough and tripped on low voltage.

We have had TLM data from two passes of AO-51 today, one around 14:20, another around 16:00 UTC.

Thanks Bent,
I just got a note from Gould and he caught it at the end of the 1300 pass and restarted the repeater. Your site is one of the first I look at!

Make that 5 passes (I didn't look deep enough down the list).
See http://www.amsat.dk/oz7sat/tlm/view.php?sat=ao51 and ask it to analyze a 1000 records.
