Hi Mani, VU2WMY I agree with you and in my opinion VO-52 is actually the best satellite with a linear transponder, no changes in mode of operation, always ON operating in all orbits with a great signal,very sensitive,with an AGC working very well and easy to operate. Actually VO-52 is the only satellite that I work every day with success. When VO-52 is over Europe the most part of users are from Italy.
Congratulations to AMSAT-India.
