Agreed! Good job, VT and Fox team! Always fun to help collect these
frames for the photos. Did you visit the link of a photo, and see that it
shows where the satellite was then the image was taken? Very cool!

Ha! Great to see its still working! Pretty good when our bare minimum
success criteria was one image from orbit from one of the two cameras....
Wish I had more time to think about the roll rates and the earth-detection
sensitivity settings (indicated by the 'VT-2' watermark). Of the 9 images
collected today, 3 looked pretty nice, 2 look like partial downloads, and 4
were false detects of light glinting off the antenna....wish we had factored
more into the design to account for that so that we aren't wasting time
downloading 'bad' images.....lesson learned for future work for next time.
I do love those limb of the earth shots....def my favorites!

I am using N3FJP's logging program to upload contacts to LoTW. It has been
working very good on all satellites. However when I try and upload PO-101
it gets rejected by LoTW. Does anybody know what LoTW wants for this
satellites name? I get a message back that says "invalid satellite name on

The new TQSL has a very picky. I got the same thing until I looked at the
right top box in AC Log in more detail. Highlight alll the message in that
box, paste it into a word processor and print it out. You most likely have
errors in some entries the old TQSL never caught. Once you find each one in
your ACLOG, edit and correct, reload them up to LOTW, it will then accept
PO-101 sats without a problem. Had the same thing. There is nothing wrong
with your current log other than there are mistakes. My most common was an
?I? instead of the number ?1? in a callsign.
You will be purring along soon.

I ran the experiments for 2 passes. 28Apr 1608 UTC and 29Apr 0245 UTC. The
first pass was just a few minutes before it switched to the video mode. The
second pass was high elevation and 11 minutes.
It was mentioned that the interference might be from a 145.110 MHz repeater
due to the 3rd harmonic. Also mentioned were towns heard in the
conversation and that there was a courtesy beep. A repeater in our area
that fits all those items in the N1CON repeater in Concord MA.
For both passes I heard the bird fine and there were ongoing QSOs. During
the passes I transmitted periodically on the repeater announcing my call and
'testing' to cause some audio on the repeater. Also had another station
transmitting on the repeater. Throughout the test I did not hear any
interference on the downlink. So also, I did not listen to the uplink
frequency since there did not seem to be any interference at that time. I
am using different radios for TX and RX, and antennas that are far apart for
the tests.
I'll check from time to time listening to the downlink. If I hear the
interference, I can both check the uplink frequency and also listen to the
local repeaters. There are many in this area.

I am in the area of a suspected repeater. Also in the area of the towns
mentioned to could be that machine. I'll watch for the next AO-92 pass and
announce my call of the repeater a few times and listen to AO-92. So if you
hear "KV1J" it is me testing for the interference. I have not looked at the
pass schedule yet but I can try a couple passes.
