This is a NEW change!!!
NOAA-15 APT to be transmitted during conflict with NOAA-12 until December
7, 2003
==================================================================
Because on an RF conflict with N15, N12 VTX-1 will be turned off between
3 Nov 20:30 Z and 7 Dec 03. Originally, N15 VTX-1 was to be turned off
but this has changed because of concern about turning off the N15 VTX
transmitter. (The N15 VTX transmitter is the same as the one on N16
which failed after the first time it was turned off in Oct of 2000.
Engineering is investigating the implications of this anomaly as it
pertains to N15. However, to stay on the safe side engineering has
decided not to turn off N15 VTX-1 for the duration of this RF conflict
and until a satisfactory conclusion regarding the implications of
turning off N15 can be determined.)
The current RF conflict with NOAA-12 will end on December 7 at 0100 UTC
at which time the NOAA-12 VTX-1 (for APT data) will be commanded ON.
During this period, APT will be transmitted from NOAA-15 on 137.50 MHz as
usual.
