Thanks, Paul!

Latest version of FoxTelem downloaded and installed.? I've downloaded
the data from the server and I'm now exploring and analyzing.

Some personal thoughts on this subject.
On the 14th December AO-73 was placed back in Transponder mode after having
been in Educational Mode for many months to examine the performance of AO-73
in full sun. AO-73 is currently experiencing its second full sun encounter
which will last until April 2019.
The first experience was earlier this year when a number of observations
were noted in AO-73's attitude. A controlled experiment has been undertaken
during the first stage of this current full sun encounter to understand and
quantify those previous observations.

Simply put, while in full sun AO-73 slowly speeds up due to Propeller Effect
and reaches a point where due to an offset Centre of Gravity the Nutation
becomes excessive and AO-73 finally ceases to rotate about its Z-Z axis.


Points of clarification.
Educational Mode 300 milli-watts Beacon downlink.
Transponder Mode 30 milli-watt Beacon.
Propeller Effect occurs from the Materials Experiment on AO-73. Schools STEM
Initiative.
https://funcube.org.uk/education-outreach/
The fading you are currently seeing is medium to high Nutation (Wobble about
the Z-Z axis).
AO-73 has not ceased to rotate about the Z-Z axis or start tumbling.
For past history please refer to Mike's Blog and in particular.

Dear All,

Also noticed quite a difference on AO-73 reception this side, it used to be
100% reliable but less decodes theses day, I have not investigate same but
for sure there is a degradation somehow.

Just FYI

Good stuff, Joanne...thanks

One thing, though, that I have never understood, however:  Does SatPC32
properly update keps and the sqf data when the 'update' option is used in
the program? Or do we need to keep updating manually. I can understand with
a new sat, manually trying to find the right data, but after the sats are
rolling along for a few weeks the normal sites that identify keps usually
have that data current.

Thanks for any input

73, Ted

I have seen this term "dobbler file" being used. Is it supposed to be
"doppler file"?

OK,
Now I am at a loss here for a little bit.  Several folks have sent their
Doppler files to work with, however, the next thing is when I look at the
file at some of the sat's I see that there is 3 different sets of data for
some depending on the sat.  At this point I am not sure what to do about
this and if it is normal to see it that way depending on the install.
The next question is there a good source for finding the correct frequency
and mods list for each bird that I can edit things to where they could be
for what they are?
I would like to thank all of those that have sent information to me for
this and I will continue to look things over and see what the workarounds
might be to fix what I am seeing.

Thank you.
