AO-51 Satellite Schedule for February

Details of the February operating schedule for the Amateur Radio satellite AO-51 has been released.

The AO-51 committee has completed a schedule for February. We will continue the V/US repeater mode that began on January 25th for all of February, except on Tuesdays through Thursdays when we will switch to L/US. This pattern will repeat every week in February except that the mode switch from V/US to L/US on Tuesday the 12th will be delayed until Wednesday the 13th to accommodate a School Roundup event at Two Rivers School in North Bend, Washington.

The S-band downlink may be temporarily suspended for WOD telemetry download without notice. Generally this will only be for one pass per day.

Regarding the graphic schedule...the software that does the schedule will not allow for the proper display of the current modes. Please refer to this page for mode change information.
