If these keps are correct then hams in DM04rj will be treated to a 53
degree pass from ARISSAT-1 around 2331 UTC (331pm local) this afternoon
(Tuesday). Here in the Santa Clarita Valley, 30 miles north of Downtown
Los Angeles, we are surrounded by 3000-6000 foot peaks. We have not seen
a pass above 20 degrees since mid-October. To date I have only managed
to successfully receive ARISSAT-1 twice, I'm hoping this afternoon I
will be able to receive a SSTV image, decode some telemetry or contact
someone through the transponder.
