Hello All AO7 Operators;

During the Eclipse Cycle over Antarctica, AO7 continues to come out of 
eclipse in Mode B.

Even better news is that I tracked down Jan A. King the designer of AO7 
and he has graciously offered to answer some of my questions about the 
basic design of the Grand Old Lady of satellites.

I will be speaking with him next week after the Memorial Day Weekend and 
I hope to gather some insight into the operations of AO7.

I am very lucky to get access to him for his knowledge of this great 
satellite.

73 All FRM,
