Hi Selwyn,
4 of these satellites are using ham frequencies as far as I can tell.
CHOMPTT is using 437.560 9k6 GMSK
CubeSail is using 437.505 9k6 GMSK
DaVinci is a bit more interseting with a 145.1 UpLink and 436.5 downlink
with Data? and CW.
ISX-SR1 is using 437.15 FSK (9k6 ?).
NMTSat is using UHF 437?
See: http://www.ne.jp/asahi/hamradio/je9pel/cubedavi.htm
Cheers,
Terry ZL2BAC

Hello Terry,
Very useful and interesting info.....do you know if any have ham frequencies
down links etc i.e. telemetry/voice?

Further suggestions: for Suomi100 use object 43788, for CSIM use object
43793,
for MinXSS 2 use object 43758, and for SnugLite use object 43786.
Still no TLE set for Jordan-OSCAR 97 (ex JY1Sat) from SpaceTrack.org.
Therefore I determined these TLEs myself from doppler measurements:
Jordan-OSCAR 97
1 60001U 18601A?? 18343.03869085? .00000100? 00000-0? 15114-4 0 01

I have run several more passes, and I'll have to agree. Something is not
right with the auto-tuner. It has to be baby sat, contantly dropping lock
in response to the auto tune not functioning even well within the specified
range.

Bourliaguet, Thiviers, France
Message-ID: <25BCF68298224EEB87AD4F600179E732@???>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
An International Space Station school contact has been planned with
participants at Coll?ge L?once Bourliaguet, Thiviers, France on 10 Dec. The
event is scheduled to begin at approximately 13:12 UTC. The duration of the
contact is approximately 9 minutes and 30 seconds. The contact will be
direct between OR4ISS and F5KEM. The contact should be audible over France
and adjacent areas. Interested parties are invited to listen in on the
145.80 MHz downlink. The contact is expected to be conducted in English.
Due to its geographical location, Thiviers has always had a commercial
vocation, and the reputation of its agricultural products has largely
contributed to its expansion.
As a medieval fortified town, Thiviers was always coveted for its strategic
position, Thiviers was even many times destroyed, the town has been rebuilt
again and again with the passage of history.
Thiviers is a place of pilgrimage on the way to Santiago de Compostela.
In the middle of the 18th century, for more than 174 years, Thiviers was an
important place for earthenware. The small dynamic town of about 3000
inhabitants is famous for its many fairs and markets, including the Goose
and the Duck in winter. The fairs of Thiviers were already known in the 15th
century. In 1962, the city organized the first award-winning fair in the
Dordogne, allowing it to obtain a label for its greasy markets and to be
proclaimed "Capital of Foie Gras in P?rigord".
Ensuring the natural transition between the Limousin in the North and the
great province of Aquitaine in the South, Thiviers is a gateway to the South
of the Regional Natural Park Perigord-Limousin. Its geographical position is
remarkable, on the RN21. On the other hand, its rail passenger and goods
traffic ensures a continuous and ever increasing activity towards major
centers. Several companies are located in Thiviers, "ARCADIE Sud Ouest" the
Thiviers slaughterhouse and the Thiviers quarries are the two main ones.

About ARISS:
Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) is a cooperative
venture of international amateur radio societies and the space agencies that
support the International Space Station (ISS). In the United States,
sponsors are the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT), the American
Radio Relay League (ARRL), the Center for the Advancement of Science in
Space (CASIS) and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).
The primary goal of ARISS is to promote exploration of science, technology,
engineering, and mathematics (STEM) topics by organizing scheduled contacts
via amateur radio between crew members aboard the ISS and students in
classrooms or informal education venues. With the help of experienced
amateur radio volunteers, ISS crews speak directly with large audiences in a
variety of public forums. Before and during these radio contacts, students,
teachers, parents, and communities learn about space, space technologies,
and amateur radio. For more informa
tion, see www.ariss.org, www.amsat.org, and www.arrl.org.
Thank you & 73,

Message-ID: <0dfbcb1c-2cd4-ffba-b46e-5c2004d0b8e1@???????????.??>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
After reading the manual from FoxTelem, I decided to thy the 192KHz wide
suggestion they made ... the intent being to use SDR-Console/Satellite
and the RTL820T Dongle.
SDRC/Satellite is unable to auto-switch to the next in a list of Sats so
making a bandwidth big enough to take in the lower end of one to the
upper end of the others means, technically, 'set and forget' .
I never did understand though where the Find-Sat "switch" was. I was
hoping a strong signal somewhere in the bandwidth, which I could see was
wide enough to cover the 4, would be enough to make the FoxTelem
program seek out the Sat and decode it.
I'd hoped to be able to activate the programs overnight and collect from
85 91 92 95 .
It didn't work out. Though in testing, I could visually see the
Telem/Signal come up.
So is anyone using this combo willing to give me some pointers?
Thanks
