Strange network only sending 3FGs for 8 to 12 minutes, no messages heard. Probably always 2 frequencies in parallel. Skeds normally repeated daily. Keeps UTC skeds. More skeds expected, difficult to find (weak signals).

Skeds in March 2007	:	14710//??	0830 UTC	:	555 (was 12200 27.3.)
		10780//11430	1500 UTC	:	555
		5670//8810	1630 UTC	:	951
		14710//??	1700 UTC	:	heard by JPL
