[amsat-bb] Psat2 sstv

[Robert Bruninga]

The live status of PSAT2 is easy to see on http://aprs.org/sats.html
select the link to the Telemetry-Last-24hrs
And  you can see the status just minutes ago.:

20190810 182731,PSAT2-1>APOFF...:T#060,704,041,910,741,162,11010001
The status bits tell you left to right:
1 = DTMF Grid Reporting is on
1 = Always on
0 = internal use
1 = DTMF Messages are on
0 = PSK31 and SSTV Camera are on (note, inverted)
0 = Digipeater is OFF
0 = APRS-to-Voice is off
1 = Internal use

This condition will remain until we get enough users to assess the DTMF
modes.
We invite people to play.  Lots of new and different modes.
With DTMF messages now on, one can QSL a grid report and make a 2way
contact.
