Our vibe system is available to other government activities.  You do the
paperwork?

It is only a few years old, is working fine.  But we got another one ?
bigger.

We needed one to provide a full 20G vibe on a 3U cubesat.

This one can only get to 20 g on a 1U.



Here is what it looks like:

I have no idea how things get transferred, but I am certain that our
comptroller will only let us transfer it inter-agency.  So if you are not
somehow able to get a government transfer, please don?t bother asking.  And
we are still waiting to see if any other department on campus wants it.



This thing is big.  The image on the above web page has a 19? half-rack for
the amp as shown on the left, but the image of the VIBE table itself is at
HALF that same scale in that image.  SO it is actually twice as big, about
4? long, 3? high and 2? wide and very heavy half inch steel, double the
size shown.

I think so :o)

Just received a brief e-mail from Ghislain LX2RG, the project manager of
the 4M payload.

The e-mail just says "It's working !"

We used our modest EME station to receive and do a live feed of data
from 4M into the online database for a couple of hours in the early
evening here in Colorado.  Signal was plenty strong and we sent along a
couple hundred packets, although sun noise was a bit high just off the
spacecraft direction.  We could hear the JT65B tones in the speaker much
of the time.  Sample below.  We will continue to feed in data as we have
time.

TLEs on the mission web site are now OK in NOVA for tracking, even
though NOVA shows an AOS of "CRASHED" because the orbit intersects the
earth after the lunar loop around.

The signal levels shown in this WSJT capture are quite strong at up to -8dB.

My EME station is 2x15 element Yagis on 38' booms, horizontal, .8dB NF
preamp on the short tower.  About 17dB gain overall.  Probably somewhat
less since they are cut for 144.1 and this spacecraft is at 145.980.
