AO-7 is in continuous illumination right now, and the spacecraft toggles between Mode A and Mode B every 24 hours. Check http://oscar.dcarr.org/ to see which mode it is in at present. Looks like tonight it was in Mode A, with a 29 MHz downlink.

Hope that helps some.

Is anyone able to hear the AO-7 beacon on: 145.9775 MHz CW?

I just tried without any luck, from Orlando FL.
