AMSAT News Service Bulletin 004.02 From AMSAT HQ
SILVER SPRING, MD. January 4, 2004
To All RADIO AMATEURS
BID: $ANS-004.02
AO-40's attitude drift proceeded at about 85% of the predicted rate, so we
moved a little slower moving then we would have liked. As of 3 January
2003, ALON/ALAT is approximately 337 / 3. The U,L1 -> S2 passbands are now
active from MA 20 to 140.
Please run low power and stay well clear of the beacon.

As we chase the sun back to 0/0 at about 1 deg/day, the passbands will be
lengthened and moved more into the second half of the orbit.
