RE: [amsat-bb] UO-36 over S.America?

[Chris Jackson <c.jackson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Due to the low power budget on UO-36 the satellite downlink is normally OFF.

I will release a new version of MSPE that has the ability to switch the
downlink on during the pass (hopefully later today).

I finally got my radio working with the IFD board and tried the same tonight
with a 27 deg. pass.  I heard nothing either.
