Just worked Michael (N3UC) thru it... Nice signal from the old bird!
George, KA3HSW
I just tries and heard nothing. George, doesn't it still send a packet burst when it turns on? I recall the packet would come around when it crossed 30° latitude and would stay on for 6 minutes. I hope it indeed has come back.73Rick Tejera (K7TEJ)Saguaro Astronomy ClubWww.saguaroastro.orgThunderbird Astronomy ClubWww.w7tbc.org -------- Original message --------From: George Henry via AMSAT-BB amsat-bb@amsat.org Date: 5/9/20 16:22 (GMT-07:00) To: amsat-bb@amsat.org Subject: [amsat-bb] AO-27 Just worked Michael (N3UC) thru it...

Good Morning (evening my side Hi!),
Had a good pass with high elevation but could not receive the beacon nor myself on AO-27.
Has the frequencies drift a lot or do we need to have a CTCSS tone?
