(Thanks to Hackaday for the informaiton)
+ AMSAT-EA released a statement on the decay of SO-121: "HADES-D (SO-121)
satellite has re-entered the atmosphere, disintegrating as planned. Many
thanks to the ham radio community for your support. We are glad that, even
with its low power, many amateurs were able to make voice contacts and had
fun receiving its telemetry." (Thanks to AMSAT-EA for the information)
+ FO-29's batteries are unable to support continuous operation of the
analog transponder throughout its orbit after over 28 years. However, JARL
continues to turn on the transponder at various times. Operation continues
until the satellite's UVC (under-voltage control) automatically turns off
the transponder. Times for the remainder of November are:
Nov 10th 01:50 UTC
Nov 16th 01:35 UTC
Nov 17th 02:24 UTC
Nov 23rd 02:09 UTC
Nov 24th 01:15 UTC
Nov 30th 02:43 UTC
(Thanks to JARL for the information)
