ARRISat-1 was mainly in eclipse over North America since the launch but 
starting August 15 the first orbits over NA will be out of eclipse 
and if the batteries can hold and the inside temp does not cooked the 
electronics we will have a chance to listen and work it at a more 
suitable time slot instead having to set the alarm clock in the middle of the 
night...Plus we will have the high power.

We all hope for the best but as projected we already exceed the +- 8 days life 
expectancy lets say we lived on borrowed time.
