Update 8 July -- AO-51 July Schedule

The July AO-51 schedule is posted below. One note, the mode change on July 11 may not occur on schedule due to Hurricane Dennis' expected path. Which is coming right for KE4AZN. Therefore if that change is delayed by a number of days I hope you will understand. Based on the projected path I will be taking down my antennas and securing everything at the QTH on Saturday.

July 2005 AO-51 (Amsat Echo) Schedule
Updated 8 July 2005

All dates are UTC. The mode change occurs normally between 0100 and 0400 utc on the date shown. The mode will be active from the date shown until the next Mode Change date listed. Mode Configurations are listed below the schedule. If for some unplanned reason we need to work with Echo and deviate from the plan I will post a note to the this Echo page on AMSAT.ORG.

If a specific transmitter or mode is not listed on a given day then it will be off. For example, if TXB (435.300) is not listed during a 38k4 digital mode period then the FM repeater will be off.
