[amsat-bb] AO-27 Turned On

[Alan]

Tim replies to emails, but it can sometimes take days, and rarely weeks.  I believe there is an active
Twitter account mentioned on his web site, so perhaps someone can contact him that way?

73s,

<Hi all,
<
<It appears over the past few months, control operators have been working on
<
<the old bird as seen here http://www2.umbrasi.com/ . Im still not sure if
<
<its fully operational yet, im going to listen for it tomorrow, you should
<
<do the same too. As for keps, im using the keps generated off of N2YO, not
<
<sure how accurate they are but im using them. Looks like they finally got a
<
<update in, as its been over a year since the last update :). Let everyone
<
<know on the BBS if you hear it or not. I have not talked on this satellite
<
<for 5 years now! Hopefully more memories to come.
<

<
<If anyone has contacts into CelesTrak to get AO-27 back into the
