Hi! I was looking on http://oscar.dcarr.org/ and noticed that FO-29 has not been reported as active since early (UTC) Thursday. Did something happen to it?
If FO-29 is not available tomorrow, that will only have an effect on one pass at the hamfest I'll attend in Tucson AZ. I was hoping to work one pass around 1300 UTC at the hamfest site, to see if a different antenna could overcome the military QRM I encountered trying to work FO-29 at that location a couple of years ago. Later in the day, AO-7 should be back in mode B - and its passes were coming by very close to the predicted times for FO-29. I still don't know exactly where I'll drive tomorrow after that hamfest, and may leave it to the APRS track to show where I'm at in southeastern Arizona (heading to DM51/DM52 if I'm south of I-10, DM52/DM53 if I am north of I-10, or the at Arizona/New Mexico state line in DM52 if I am parked along I-10) at http://aprs.fi/wd9ewk-7 73!
