A trouble occurs on FO-29 CW and Transponder now. The control station tries for restoration hard. They say as follows.
We plan the next test use until Monday.
28 Aug, 12:03 UTC 28 Aug, 22:10 UTC 29 Aug, 21:15 UTC 30 Aug, 22:05 UTC
We may not turn on a transmitter by the influence such as buildings depending on a direction of AOS at the time of the schedule. The amateur station who wants to use the transponder please perform uplink after hearing the CW telemetry of FO-29.
FO-29 doubles with a receiver for communication without being equipped with the receiver for exclusive use of the command. When many stations do uplink during command work, please understand it because it takes many time when we turn on the transponder.

Is there a place where amateurs can have a look at what the status is of the planned actions?
And maybe offer there help, the last year this has been done a couple of times with for example COMPASS-1.
