if the weather is good. The first stage will be fully primed, stages 2 and 3 are just dummies for the test. 1-X is the proposed successor to the shuttle. _http://www.space-travel.com/reports/NASA_is_go_for_crucial_rocket_test_999.html | ||

My System: Fortec Star FS-4200, Comag SL30/12, Triax TD110 dish, Jaeger99 motor, AzureWave AD-SP400 PCI card (Twinhan thing) | Does anyone know if the launch will be shown on any European satellites? NASA TV on 72W looks rather impossible on paper  | ||

Skystar2 /Twinhan SD /TS S2-3200 pci cards | ...looks like they are having problems with some very 'low tech' ...cord and probe cover jammed.. unbelievable that this sort of thing might possibly delay everything. | ||

| Now moved back to 13.45 (or so) BBC News should have coverage of the launch, unless something more interesting appears, but it is a slow news day. Now a boat has appeared in the bay, where the debris might drop, so it looks like its off for now. | ||

My System: Triax 1.1m and Orbital 80cm Motorised Dishes. Various fixed Dishes. Eclectic selection of Digital and Analogue Receivers. Complex switching and distribution that SWMBO cannot fathom. Nor me. |
Splendid - I'll look out for that. Can't really cope with Interweb Streaming owing to sub-snail speed. | |||
