That's odd!

Another oddity; I noticed on Tuesday night (I think it was) that it didnt wake up for the second European pass of the evening, 20:20 - 21:05 UTC

Just a FYI !

Interestingly, the other day it was beaconing that it was in FM mode, but was clearly on the linear transponder (as the schedule said it should be)...

Hi All,

As this satellite has been placed on an initial schedule with regards to the On Times for both the Transponder and Repeater, does the Beacon operate regardless of the status of the bird?
