The satellite's in FM mode for the next week. Is that correct?

[amsat-bb] Re- HO-68 question
Hi Pat Indeed, I would have assumed that 01:51 UTC to 14:20 HO-68 would have been off. Note that the beacon is always audible (as far as I know) Based on this schedule I would have assumed 14:20-15:05utc the FM repeater to have been on Woaaah While typing this email: I just see there is a typo on the camsat website ! 18 Sept is entered twice :-) :-) Try the same time tomorrow !

[amsat-bb] HO-68 question
I finally got an opportunity to try and work HO-68 again on the weekend. Very tough during the week due to work schedule. I had a 65 deg at peak pass over FN20un but was unable to hear the satellite at all during the entire pass. Often I have a high 70cm noise level here so I figured it was operator tracking error (Arrow on a tripod) and the high noise level. I went to http://oscar.dcarr.org to see if anyone had heard the pass and unfortunately there were no reports either way. What I did find was a bit confusing unless the past work week took a real toll on me...LOL!... There were 4 reports out of Europe earlier in the day of the satellite being heard. When I had checked the schedule on http://www.camsat.cn I thought I understood the satellite to be off between 1:51 and 14:20 UTC. The pass I was trying to catch was at 14:39 UTC but the reported heard times were in the OFF period for HO-68. Am I reading this all wrong? I was hoping to perhaps catch a European station or two on that pass and also work others here in the US.

[amsat-bb] AO-7 Mode A
The AO-7 Mode A pass on 9/18/10 at approximately 1430 UTC (POS with 14 degs elevation) at my location, FM-19, was truly impressive. The CW downlink was rock solid for the entire pass into my little 2 element 10 meter yagi with my uplink power of 10-15 watts into a 3 X 3 element RHCP yagi. The CW downlink tone was most impressive with no warbling at all! No one answered my CQs but what a delight to hear such an impressive downlink from the grand old lady. AO-7 is truly a remarkable resource! Enjoy her! Guy N3SCR ___ Sent via amsat...@amsat.org. Opinions expressed are those of the author. Not an AMSAT-NA member?

[amsat-bb] (no subject)
Cori and I will be on the DN74 / DN75 grid line for the AO27 pass that switches to VOX at about 18/1947Z. This is another line that doesn't quite fall exactly on the state line. In this case, the grid line at 45N appears to be about 50 feet inside the Wyoming line so contacts will count only for that state. (WC7V has Montana pretty well represented anyway.) The HO68 sked starting tomorrow hasn't been published yet, so I'll try to be on from DN74 on VO52 during its 18/1619Z pass as we head for the line. We'll head for DN64 and DN63 after the AO27 pass following the 1947Z pass. 73 for now, Jim, ND9M / VQ9JC Gillette WY / Campbell Co. / DN74 ___ Sent via amsat...@amsat.org.
