Hi Paul and Clayton,
Thanks for your valuable report. Even me and Nitin VU3TYG not heard the
beacon during 02:16 UT [2 Deg] pass over India. I'm in touch with our
Satellite controllers at ISTRAC. Will keep you all posted with the latest
info, soon. The next good pass over Bangalore for us to look into the
details is only at 12:50 UT.
In the mean time, we would greatly appreciate the reports around the World.
As Paul noticed, it would be nice to scan for the beacon from 3 Khz higher.

Quoting Paul Stoetzer <n...@arrl.net>:
Any word on VO-52? Looks like it hasn't been heard from at all today.
I last listened for VO-52 a couple of days ago. I had trouble getting
into
the transponder due to a very high noise floor, which I thought might
have
been local, though I could hear AO-7 which was passing by at the same
time.
Also, the beacon was found about 3 kHz higher than normal.
I'll try to listen for the next pass at 2224Z, but I operate outside and
a
storm is on it's way.
73,
Paul, N8HM
