It'd be even cooler if future satellite firmware announced the upcoming

Seems like a waste to have an orbiting bulletin-board-like-system which
is immune to Internet outages and not use it...

Hi,I was thinking about getting the my eggbeater antenna,One thing I was
hesitant about it is that it does just RHP.Is it that most Leo's use RHP?I
have no idea what satellites have RHP or LHP,If anyone can tell me where I
can find that info that would be helpful.Please excuse my ignorance.ThanksRich

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

I have been researching the idea of building a CubeSat Simulator we can use
in a "classroom" environment, which simulates four modes of amateur
satellites:
? ? ?*? U/v FM repeater, with doppler effect
? ? ?*??VHF APRS digipeater
? ? ?*??VHF SSTV transmitter
? ? ?*??V/u linear transponder, with doppler effect

I think this would be a great tool to use in presentations/demonstration, as
well as to allow operators, using their own equipment, to take a "test
drive" on all of the amateur radio satellite types currently in orbit.
My initial plan is to use a Raspberry Pi and a LimeSDR Mini?software defined
transceiver, all stuffed inside a 3d printed, 1U Fox satellite.?
[Alternatively, I could use the RPi as the transmitter and an SDR-RTL dongle
as the receiver.]
On the software side, I am looking at running GNUradio and Direwolf.? The
trickiest part will be simulating doppler effect on the UHF receiver
(uplink) side for FM and linears.
This is all new to me and my only related education comes from what I have
been able to find on the internet.? If you have any recommendations and/or
experience with GNUradio, I could really use the help.

Rich,

Most of the birds (VHF/UHF) are using dipoles or monopoles which are linear
polarisation. The reasons to use circular polarisation is to reduce deep
fades and the convention for HAMs is to use RHCP, some also use antennas
which can be switch between RHCP & LHCP but the difference is generally
quite small except if the satellite has circular polarisation antennas.

To explain a bit more: if you use linear polarisation at your ground
station, due to the spinning and/or tumbling of the bird the fades may be up
to 30dB but if you use circular the fades will be about 3 dB max.

I'm looking to get the required telemetry program for FO-29. Not sure where
to get the program at this point. Can someone point me in the right
direction. Also since it might be a rather old program, does it still have
to be registered and will I get a password? If so who does that come from?
