It'll switch between Mode A and Mode B reliably every 24 hours when
it's in constant sunlight. It'll be in constant sunlight starting
September 29th according to DK3WN's Illum program.

24 hours after it comes out of eclipse. It's not under active management.
Watch http://www.amsat.org/status/ and it will be easy to tell about when it
switches.

WinListen, part of SatPC32, does mutual windows for two stations, one
satellite at a time. It works well.

Subject: [amsat-bb] Instant Track co-visibility
Hello everybody,
I was wondering if there is a way to predict the visibility of a single
satellite from two or more ground stations.
I will use Instant Track, but I would like to have a suggestion for a more
recent sw.
It 'a pity that IT is no more updated, it would be very nice to have a port
of it on linux.

Note earlier I said cape lookout. I was cofused. It will be Cape Hatteras

Are the beacons still functional?
And do they always run, or is the 10 meter beacon functional only when
the bird is in mode "A"

As with most things with this satellite, it depends. Usually I hear
the 145.972 MHz beacon as mostly a warbly tone. Sometimes it does send
good CW.
The 29.502 MHz beacon is only active in Mode A.
I haven't heard any reports of the 435.100 MHz Mode A or D beacon
active recently, but it's one to look out for when the transponders
are both off or it's in Mode A.

WW2DX just tweeted that the CY9C satellite station is still set up and
they are still working passes. I do not know if they will be on all
passes, but listen for them on any pass you have a footprint if you
have not yet worked them.
If I get any word about specific passes, I will let the BB know.

So, each band/mode counts for HF - does each satellite/mode count for
something here, too?
Or work 'em once on whatever mode one whatever satellite, you got 'em in
the log and that's it?

Not really, though some of us nerds do like to keep stats for each satellite!
Since I don't want to step on anyone, I only worked them once on FO-29
and once on AO-85. I also made sure to get the AMSAT club call, W3ZM,
a QSO with them.
There are still a few sat ops out there that haven't had a chance to
work them yet, so I hope everyone who wants to can get them in the log
tonight.

I didn't hear the beacon on the 2050Z pass at my QTH, but I don't have
the best setup at the moment.
Do you have an AZ/EL setup or an omni? How easy is it for you to copy
the average QSO on a relatively high pass?

I'm still in lurking mode at the moment.
I'm just about ready to activate on NO-84.
And just listening for not to see if I ever hear anything on AO-7 Mode
"A" at all yet.
Last time I heard a signal on that bird was ohhh 1978?
