[amsat-bb] Re: What is the status of AO-51 again?

[Mark L. Hammond]

Well, for pass by pass reports, we have always recommended this:

http://oscar.dcarr.org/

The information at that site is only as good as we the users make it.
You can help by reporting whether you heard it or not.

These days, AO-51 is likely to be OFF far more than it will be ON.
