Re: [amsat-bb] AO51 schedule page

[Emily Clarke <w0eec@xxxxxxxxx>]

I don't find it that helpful since it doesn't call out specific modes but 
rather mode pairs.  For example, the TLM is currently on in 9600 U band but 
it doesn't reflect that.  Also, the frequencies are missing and that is 
something that is a very nice feature.  But I think a graphical schedule is 
better than what we have currently.

When AO-40 was alive I did a similar format for the AO-40 schedule on the 
Project OSCAR website.  The test page is still there - go to 
http://www.projectoscar.net/sked.php   It would update automatically from 
the AO-40 TLM beacon since the schedule was there, or I could update it 
manually by submitting the data in CSV format.

I've contacted the control team - we can make this happen on the AMSAT 
website if they are interested.  I don't think we can update it 
automatically from the TLM, but I can write a scheduling application for 
them to use to generate it.  It's about two hours of programming...

73,

Emily
