Hi!

Keeping with the subject of this thread... AO-91 was switched on this morning by AMSAT. From the AMSAT-BB list:

https://mailman.amsat.org/hyperkitty/list/amsat-bb@amsat.org/thread/JPE4R3YMJULUJR3NJQXDIEAI5B2MAIF2/




AMSAT asked that nobody use AO-91 when it is is eclipse. Unfortunately, when it passed over North America around 1810 UTC, it had slipped into safe mode. Maybe it can be switched on again, but it is possible AO-91's batteries are too far gone to support its normal operation.
