[OZAPRS] No VK ground stations for PCSAT?

[martin diggens]

Hi Ian

pcsat is at a much greater altitude than the ISS and as a result its
signals are much weaker. I also think the batteries on pcsat are not in
good shape as most access times for this sat are during periods of sun
synchronous orbits. There has been little activity through pcsat over the
last 24 hours which would indicate something is going on...either it has
been turned off or it just can't manage it at the moment.

Greetings all,

I tried PCSAT over the weekend in addition to ARISS and managed to have my
position transmitted back to me on both birds. I noticed though that there
seems to be no ground stations for PCSAT while there is a few for ISS ..
Is
that right?

Thanks
