[amsat-bb] MO-76 /$50sat 1 yr old

[David G0MRF]

What I find really amazing is that the battery has been frozen and
defrosted over 5000 times.......and it still works.
 
That must be a unique piece of battery testing.
 
Happy birthday Howie and team.

Howie (and the rest of your team),

Congratulations on your satellite's first anniversary!
It was good to talk with you and Michael KD8QBA in
Baltimore last month, and to see Michael at work copying
the telemetry at Dayton earlier this year.  An impressive
satellite!

73!
