[amsat-bb] FM Satellites week of 16 Dec 2002

[Bob Bruninga <bruninga@xxxxxxxx>]

PCsat is still fully functional even though it is in maximum eclipse
cycles, so it should support your Holiday Travels just fine thanks to
several command stations  (WB4APR, G6LVB, W4EPI, VK2XGJ, ZL1AOX, ZR1CBC,
N6CO, ZR1FN and others making sure the 72 hour failsafe timer remains
toggled at least once every 3 days).  Here are the pass periods for this
week for your mobile satellite operations...

AO-7 is not an FM satellite, but I included it here because of its
popularity...
