Well I am definitely going to try and make the "wee hours of the 
morning" pass of AO7, to see what Mode it is in. AO7-a was loud and 
sometimes distorted, but it was weak at others.

I am uncertain of the switch time at this moment but it should be easy 
enough to nail it down once the satellite has settled in to a better 
illumination angle with the sun.

I for one will be happy to have the "Old Girl" back into her familiar 
operational mode of switching every day and having clean audio from the 
satellite.

If anyone has some current information as to when the mode switch is, I 
would be interested in knowing when that time is!
