[amsat-bb] AO-7 orbit count.

[Alan]

Tom,

According to the Keps, AO-7 makes 12.54 orbits per day.  It will hit 99999
on the 30th or so.  You can use the Preview function to find out exactly
when.

<Now I see looking at SatPC32 that it shows AO-7 in the 99,625 range in
orbit
<count.  If memory serves me right though, doesn't the TLE orbit count roll
<over at 99,999 (Just like a car odometer), so that would mean that we would
<be coming up to the 200,000th rev is that right?  If I am right, then this
<will be coming up in less than a month.  Does anybody know exactly when
that
<will be?  I am doing a presentation for a local club and would like to
throw
<out that fact if I could.  Also the day of that event would be good AO-7
<operating day I would think.
