[amsat-bb] AO-85 Question

[Matthew Stevens]

At TCA up is 435.170, down 145.980.

So accounting for doppler with 5khz steps, 435.160 at AOS, 435.165 halfway
to TCA, 435.170 at TCA, 435.175 halfway to LOS, and 435.180 approaching LOS.

I also find it necessary at times to tune the downlink to 145.975 after
TCA, although not always. Just depends on the pass.

73,
