If it helps "pinpoint" any potential problem, AO-51 sounded great on the
0209UTC pass on the 26th - which was 6:09PM Tuesday night in California.

Hi All
?
Wasn't there a hardware watchdog, on board AO-51 for triggering the processor
resets in extreme fault cases to a Beacon mode?

Doesn't matter. I don't need to use their particular implementation,
and I don't need to care about patented software. They're welcome to

Does anyone know if the QRP frequency is operational right now, everyday, on
AO-51, I tried it a few weeks ago twice with nothing heard, two days ago, I
tried the regular voice frequencies and with my 5 watt HT on my arrow, could
not seem to get a word in edgewise over the traffic and I hate to keep calling
and putting out noise, I could hear most everyone loud and clear but could not
get a response...............

According to my notes, the bird switches from MODE A to MODE B (or back to
MODE A) at approx 2100 UTC every day. Today, it was supposed to be in mode
A. According to the AO7 log, it made the switch to MODE A, but apparently
switched back to mode B.

When the bird made a pass at my QTH around 0040 UTC, I did not hear a peep
on MODE A or MODE B. Normally I hear LOTS of signals.
Indication of a problem?

VE3DRT and K4JPC have the wrong date , it should have been 11/25/08 , see my
log info for 11/25/08 and the sat was in mode "B". AO7 switched today at 20:58
utc to mode "A" They can correct it by deleting and start all over and put the
correct info in for 11/25 you can change the date, time and mode in the
log.
