Thank you for reporting this, Daniel.  This could either have been a
processor reset for some reason, or simply the hang timer on the
transponder timing out not having detected a 67Hz tone in a couple
minutes.  Either one would seem pretty similar.  Neither one is cause
for concern if it came back up.

Processor resets are not unexpected.  In fact they are less common
than expected.  They are usually caused by radiation of various sorts
in space (low energy protons etc) temporarily messing up the
processor.  A reset and/or a power cycle as so far always sufficed to
fix the problem.

I just checked the latest telemetry we have on the server, and there
are not yet any reports of a processor reset, but right now, AO-85 is
over the South Pacific.  A close-to-overhead pass coming up soon.

Thanks again and 73,

Burns W2BFJ
Fox-1 Flight Software

P.S.:  Everyone who reads this in North, Central, and northern South
America:  Just a reminder: Please remember that we are testing the
satellite today.  Please collect telemetry (if any) and listen but
don't transmit.  In Europe, Asia, Oceana, etc etc...feel free to use
the transponder and report what it sounds like if we manage to shift
to carrier operated mode.

Hi,

Please check if the house Icon on map shows on your location.

If it is not, click on 'Change', then click on 'Reset' and enter
either your grid locator or latitude/longitude, then click 'Resolve'
and finally click 'Set New'

Should bring map showing 'house icon' over your location and develop
passes on your local time sorted by time.

Make sure you have correct date/time and timezone on your device.

Thanks for trying !! and good luck chasing birds.

Best 73 from Buenos Aires.

That's a HOT downlink!  Hope copied Drew off the side of her Arrow at 3.6
from LOS and the bird was behind the house.

Drew, you sounded good in repeater mode.

usual.

Hi,

AO-85 COR mode was working fine in its last pass over Europe (about
15:52 UTC). Plenty of stations where using the transponder and it seems
that most sounded quite good without the DUV telemetry.

Hitting the transponder with my handheld arrow and 5W didn't seem more
difficult than usual, perhaps even a bit easier.

Dani M0HXM/EA4GPZ.

Thanks for the reports James, Alan, Dani.

Please let us know via -bb what your experience is if you caught AO-85
on this current orbit 443.  We will do another test over the U.S.
beginning about 17:15 UTC.

U.S. STATIONS PLEASE KEEP THE UPLINK CLEAR!
We had some competition that affected our low power testing during this
first pass.  The longer it takes us to test, the longer it will be
before AO-85 is commissioned and we can turn it over to Operations for
scheduling.  We are trying to characterize the uplink sensitivity, and
can't do that if other stations are trying to use the bird causing QRM.

Thank you.

Jerry Buxton, N?JY

I hadn't thought about explaining how the ISS passes along the sky. I

I'm a bit doubtful on the no 67Hz on input theory. There were several
stations trying to hit the satellite, including me. I was using only 5W,
so perhaps the satellite won't lock to my 67Hz tone except in good
conditions, but the other stations were probably using more power.

Whatever the case, the telemetry shows that there was no satellite
reset at that time.  We did command a reset some time after that
however.  I have no other hypotheses.

I was just on the 18:44 Z pass of FO-29 and was certain I heard an FM
signal around 435.869. There was a loud squeal and it sounded like an alien
was talking! Should I get my hearing checked or did anyone else notice?
Thanks.
