[amsat-bb] ANDE ramping down: now almost at 200km

["Henk, PA3GUO" <hamoen@xxxxxx>]

ANDE is now at ~202 km height.

On my website I updated the plotted height,
and its perfectly following the shape of the
predictions. Yet, a few dates behind.

>From the graph I expect Dec 24 or so as the last day
(based on the fact that RAFT last day was when it
had reached 175 km).

Also today QSOs have been made. I see DD6UBW and OK1DNT for example.
