Re: [amsat-bb] AO-40 schedule informations

Good Evening Andrea,

I believe the 0-7 numbers refer to positions used by the scheduling system
in the IHU on board AO-40.  From a User point of view you would be
interested in the Mean Anomaly or MA numbers.  The best explanation is on
AMSAT-DL's web site.  Their description and pictures are much better than I
could do here.

AMSAT-DL mini-glossary of AO-40 terms.

There is also a status page with links to a lot of useful information both
in English and German.

Hi all,

referred to this AO-40 schedule I would like to know
the numbers below MA line what means.
So, I think they are MA steps (or schedule mode for traking software)
from 0 to 7 for future trasponder schedule and I need to know if
I suppose rigth.
Now in this schedule are missing 2,3,6.

If no, how many steps will have AO-40 ?
