All,
If the current trend continues, BY70-1 may be expected to decay and burn up in the atmosphere by mid-February.
The apogee of the satellite has decreased from initially 520 km to now 426 km and the perigee has decreased from initially 216 km to now 208 km.
73, Nico PA0DLO
All,
BY70-1 may be expected to re-enter around February 10 to 13.
The apogee of the satellite has now decreased to 392 km and the perigee has decreased to 203 km.

All,
As a result of lower solar activity in the past week, the decay rate of BY70-1 has decreased. The satellite may now be expected to re-enter around February 16 to 19.
The apogee of the satellite has now decreased to 313 km and the perigee has decreased to 191 km.

Nico,
Now this time is real UTC time even the date correct? Like here in the central USA this would be at 7 PM local time the evening of Feb 17 tomorrow evening. Corect?

On the right side of the window under the data and satellites pane there is a Load TLE button. Just paste one of TLEs listed below with BY-70-1 on the first line into a text file and open it from that button. Repeat for each set as time goes by.

All,
It looks like the BB removed a space near the end of the second line of each TLE set. So in the TLE sets in the original post, add a space in the second line before '8178' in the first TLE set, before '8186' in the second TLE set, etc.

All,
It looks like the BB removed a space near the end of the second line of each TLE set. So in the TLE sets in the original post, add a space in the second line before '8178' in the first TLE set, before '8186' in the second TLE set, etc.
Looks fine to me in the original post. Mail reader issue?
Caught the 11 degree pass from EM12 last night with a Alinco DJ580T and homebrew MAX2640-based LNA (1), but my antenna setup is still lacking.

Morning Nico,
Sad,
Just curious tho, How do you know with such certainty it happened here?
The status board had it being heard last in Europe, and then going to less populated areas.
