Hello again,

I noticed that the "Bus Voltage" it was too high on my 1st collected telemetry. I received also the next pass, in order to confirm that and yes, the "Bus Voltage" is unexpectedly high (23.5V) comparing with any older telemetry were the Bus-voltage never was bigger than 17.5 Volts.

So, except the "strange" minus temperature, have we a new "fake" value? Or Am I missing something about "BusVoltage"?

Hi John,

today morning the FO-29 @~08.30 Z / orbit #60253 it was OK, my return-signal on downlink was very good (as usual) and the Beacon also sent TLM.

I was also active yesterday night, not at 22:08, but on the previous orbit.

I noticed nothing unusual.

The FO-29 seems to be in good shape, except a small problem on a temperature sensor which send negative values, as pointed out on Amsat-BB.

My collected TLM:

Hello Folks, Is the FO-29 beacon operational ??.

I had a listen on the pass at 22:08 this evening but heard nothing.

I see from the Carr log that the satellite was operational today but there's no info about the beacon.

Anybody heard it in the last 24 hours or so ??.

Any relavant information very much appreciated.
