From the Florida Today website, flatoday.com

After a series of tests on the Earth sensor and attitude control, GOES-8 was commanded back to normal on-orbit mode at approximately 2300 UTC with the redundant Earth sensor in control.

Full disk imaging and sounding operations resumed at 0145 UTC, 28 October. Image navigation performance will be severely degraded for 24 hours following the recovery. GOES-10 will continue in Full Disk Imaging mode until GOES-8 operations appear stable.
