AO-51 back on the air

AO-51 is operational again following a satellite software reset last week. Both the PBBS and the FM repeater are turned on and users are welcome to use the satellite again.

The soft-ware reloading has been completed. I spent a good deal of my holiday time this week and weekend at home in order to download the data and then reload the satellite software to get it back up and running ASAP.

The software team has reviewed the data downloaded from the satellite memory. They indicate nothing out of the ordinary in their first review of the data, therefore the decision was made to reload the satellite software and get AO-51 active again.

The software team will continue to review the information they have. Also, if we have another problem and the satellite resets itself again, we will download the memory and compare the results.
