Hi All does anyone know the condition of AO16 batteries (bearing in mind its age) at the moment the Sat is in full sunlight all of the time but after the 27th March it starts its eclipse season,so it will be interesting to see how things go on! PS. I will be looking for contacts with NA on late afternoon/early evening mid atlantic passes over the next few days.Regards Robert G8ATE _________________________________________________________________ Who's friends with who and co-starred in what? http://www.searchgamesbox.com/celebrityseparation.shtml
