John, LA2QAA, reports:
I noticed that AO-7's TX oscillator was 10Khz higher than "normal"
(while in
mode-B) on orbit 34911 at 16:10 UTC today, Sunday 09.05.04.
Emily, W0EEC has created a website to allow the users of AO-7 to record
contacts, observations and use of the satellite more effectively at:
http://www.experthams.net/ao7
This includes the ability to log contacts.
Tim, K3TZ has written a program to decode AO-07 telemetry. The program
can be
downloaded at:
