[amsat-bb] Re: AO-7 mode

[Kevin Smith]

Thanks to all who responded.  I knew there was a way to check but I am in
the field using an iphone to track and I did not know the website to check.
I am ready for the next pass if it is in Mode A.  The last AO-7 pass was low
in the sky for me and I was looking forward to some possible DX.  Oh well,
I'll get it next time.

Right now the satellite is in constant illumination, so the 24 hour mode
change timer is working. It toggles the spacecraft between Mode A and Mode
B. I look at http://oscar.dcarr.org/ or
http://www.planetemily.com/ao7/ao7log.php for an up to the orbit
determination.
