Fred,

If you heard nothing, perhaps you were listening on
Mode A when the sat was in Mode B, or vice versa.  The
best way to tell which mode it is in is to check the
log at the site John sent.  It is working well on both
modes at the moment.  For some reason, most activity
is on CW, although I'm usually there on SSB.

>>> AO-7 is indeed active when it's illuminated by the
sun. It currently 
switches between Mode A and Mode B on a 24hr timer.The
mode change has 
been occurring at around 0148z . To check the activity
of this Grand
 Old 
Bird visit the log at
http://www.planetemily.com/ao7/ao7log.php

Hope to see you on Oscar 7.
