All GOES operations were nominal over the past 24 hours. No anomalies affecting product delivery or s/c health & safety. For GOES status and other information please see: http://www.oso.noaa.gov/goes/index.htm

POES

0645z Wideband problems with the GE Americom between Wallops and SOCC resulted in very noisy data during the post pass transfers. GE Americom was able to remotely switch the solid state power amps at Wallops and the wideband was returned to service at 0755Z. All data was then reshipped nominally after the wideband link was repaired.
