Session Notes for TQAK Session  session: tqak02.skd
Prepared by John Gipson, NVI, Inc./GSFC

This is a "target of opportunity" schedule. The purpose of
the sesion is to The network is to try to determine Tigo's
position after the quake. We use the network Hb-Ho-Kk-Tc-Wf.
Hb is the new 10 meter antenna at Hobart. It is not tagged
but is scheduled with lower SNR targets.
