The Vega rocket (VV16) is scheduled to leave Kourou on *02 september * 2020
at 3h36 CEST with 53 satellites on board.
One of the satellites that will be leaving is the *Amicalsat *satellite
built by the CSUG (Centre Spatial Universitaire Grenoblois). The
measurements made by the satellite will be available to all. They will
allow radio amateurs to use them for propagation predictions.
The project's website (in english) has just been put online: http://
amicalsat.univ-grenoble-alpes.fr/.
The Amsat-Francophone supported this project: http://site.amsat-f.org/

A software (Linux & Windows) is provided for decoding the telemetry and
sending it to the database (SatNogs). The user manual is available (in

At a time when 500,000 people are without power in Texas and Louisanna and
more than HALF of the deaths from hurricane Laura are due to carbon
monoxide poisoning from gasoline home generators, I have asked the ARRL to
permanently waive the author fee to lower the cost of the book so it will
be available to more people. Among other home DIY energy projects, It
talks of solar and the transformational use of EV's and Plugin's for clean
home emergency power that can last for days or weeks....

DTUSAT-2 still has a beacon at 2401.860, tune up and down around this
frequency.Short cw data that lasts about 5 seconds and repeats about every
15 seconds.I just heard it today.

Are any of these "amateur" payloads actually amateur usable
transponders, or are they just telemetry transmitters on amateur
frequencies?

IMO, these should be Part 5 licenses in some other segment.
