AO-85 is still kicking...
Mark, N8MH and I did some testing tonight on AO-85 as it is almost back in full sun. The transmitter and COR repeater came on, but not the telemetry/IHU. Repeater sounded good but stayed keyed without an uplink signal. We shut the transmitter back off since that was an unexpected state. We'll do some more testing tomorrow.

AO-85 was commanded on again about 1200Z this morning. Repeater is on, but so far no DUV telemetry, so IHU must not be working. Also, repeater isn't dropping between uplinks as it should in this mode. We left it on, feel free to use while you can. Reports too please!

I'm not sure if this has to do with AO-85 being off for so long, but does anyone else using the SatSat iPhone app to track satellites find that AO-85 is listed but with no tracking info? I checked the AMSAT keps page and AO-85 is still there.

I've had some contact with the SatSat author who said AO-85 comes from the AMSAT website (which is not too surprising since that's the only place it exists :) Trying to check with him about the exact URL he is using. I also don't know whether Satsat itself goes to the website or if he (or someone) assembles the info for the app somewhere else.

FYI, I got a response from Fabrice, author of SatSat suggesting that the AMSAT URL might have changed. I told him what it was and asked how I could help, but got no response. However, SatSat is now displaying AO-85 with no problem so he must have fixed whatever was going on. Thanks Fabrice!
