[amsat-bb] Ao27

[Paul Stoetzer]

It has not yet been recovered. The command team turned the transmitter on
to test it out on June 28th, but they still need to upload the secondary
bootloader and then the high level code necessary to operate the satellite.
The issue in the past has been that the satellite crashes when they try to
run high level code. We will see if they've managed to work around that
problem (probably radiation damage to a section of the satellite's memory).

73,

Paul, N8HM
