All,

BY70-1 may be expected to re-enter on February 18 around 01:00 UTC
+/- 3 hours.

The apogee of the satellite has now decreased to 242 km and the perigee
has decreased to 176 km.

If the estimate that BY70-1 will decay tomorrow 17 Feb 2017 between 2 &
8PM PST.  The last chance to work the satellite may be tonight.  Can't
predict at what temperature the transmitter will stop working.

For Western USA, The last workable pass maybe tonight around 10PM_PST 16
Feb 2017.

I plan on being around.   Die_hard Satellite users welcome ... (pun

Yeah, could be.  I asked gPredict for the next 10 passes, and it only
gave me 3!

Last one listed is 11:44am tomorrow, but only a 1 degree pass.  There's
also an 11:32pm PST pass tonight (5 degrees).

Any bets?

Hi Folks!

Following is my schedule for the weekend.  As I mentioned on Twitter, I
do pay attention to the "grids worked" maps you have on your QRZ web
pages.  As a result I am making a special detour to make FN17 available
to a few who need it.  A few of you even e-mailed me your maps.  That's
fine too!  Send them to the e-mail address on my QRZ page.

A few notes:

-  The weather forecast looks promising!  I'm not likely to freeze or
get buried in snow as long as I can keep the car on the road!
-  I have a long drive to FN27/28 on Saturday morning.  Forgive me if I
miss the first pass.
-  I will do my best to operate from the FN27/28 boundary, conditions
permitting.  If it's not safe then I'll have to do them separately.  I
don't know if I have cell service there. I'll announce where I will be
if there is.
-  There are a few XW-xx "freight trains" in the schedule. We'll see how
agile I can be!  I'll try and keep up!
-  The usual disclaimers regarding obstacles like trees and geography
that may block my signal.  I may pack up early if there's no activity
and I get bored.  Get in there and work me. Snoozing = Losing

Once you work me, please stand aside on subsequent passes and let others
who need the new grid work me.  I'll work you just to get you out of the
way if you insist on being a pest, but I might forget to log you! :-)
If you want to make a quick call and say hello then please wait until
things quiet down and you hear me calling CQ.

73,

Ken Alexander

Due to a schedule conflict, I need to cancel my
operation from EM30/31 on 2/16. I'm planning to
do it on 2/17 instead.

It will be interesting to see if it stops working tomorrow as it begins to
heat up as it begins to drag in the atmosphere. Speaking of which right
now, BY70-1 is coming up in a few minutes and I intend to work this pass
and next pass of it tonight. Work it while you can I guess!

Just had a 12? pass for me here on the East Coast which put BY70-1 well out
over the ocean.  No telemetry received and only heard one very faint caller
on the FM transponder once it got well over New England or perhaps into
Canada.

Suspect there will be a lot more activity on the next pass which cuts right
through the center of the U.S.

Thanks to Bryan KL7CN/W6 for noticing that I worked up passes for
tomorrow (Friday) evening with the wrong date!  The Friday passes listed
below replace what I posted earlier.

Thanks again Bryan!
