Fred,

 

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.
