All,

The apogee contact was unsuccessful for command and telemetry. There was no AOS at the start of the 02:00 DOY 316 USHI02 support and multiple blind acquisition attempts were unsuccessful. The station radiated all commands but did not detect any signal. We are looking at scheduling another blind acquisition contact to check SOH and verify the maneuver. A DR# is forthcoming.
