Activation of CN87 and CN97 on Monday morning @ 1806 utc using AO-92
I hope I found a public street corner that bisects CN87 and CN97 in Snohomish County WA. I believe I will have line of sight for most of the 11 minutes. Hope to hear you and this is a new one for you. John

Hi John,
Just a reminder that AO-92 was just commanded into L/v mode a couple hours ago and will be in that mode until about 0200Z on Tuesday. If you're L band equipped, excellent, but if not maybe find an alternate pass.

Hi Gabe!
Since AO-92 was commanded into L/V mode this evening, it should be back to U/V mode Sunday evening - in time for the planned CN87/97 activation on Monday morning. AO-92 only stays in L/V for up to 24 hours at a time.

Hi Patrick,
Oops, I suppose I screwed up the days and thought the operation was for tomorrow. I forget what day it is...

So, I'm on for Monday with UHF/VHF and best get a 23cm antenna for when it is switched.
BTW, What is the criteria for AO-92 (or any other) changing its up/down link frequency? John

It will revert to U/v at approximately 0216Z 7/16, or Sunday evening US local time. L/v mode runs on a 24 hour timer.

I guess I missed the news... But what does "L band" mean since I'm relativity new to this? I only have FM capabilities.
