Hi,
This is object 41332, or international # 2016-009A
TLE are on Space-Track.org but currently you have to manual search for it.
Where did you learn of the downlink frequency?
Good luck,
Armando, N8IGJ

Greetings, does anyone have a printout of R. Jansson? (WD4FAB) port to the
HP41CX of the W0SL program for satellite tracking. i already have the P.
Bunnell code from Ham Radio 1981.
There are echoes of it on the internet but I cannot find the listing and
AMSAT no longer has one. This will not advance the state of the art in space
communication but the fact that I can command my arduino antenna rotor
project from my 1983 calculator over an IL loop while recording the contacts
on a old reel-to-reel would satisfy my hidden luddite tendencies.

Todd,
Sorry, can't help with your request but I just had to say what an
interesting little project.
I will remember many of the early BASIC programs for tracking satellites
which appeared in a variety of the amateur radio publications in the
80's. There was one in the AMSAT journal of that era as well (by Tom
Clark W3IWI I seem to recall). I spent much time typing in and debugging
that program on a several different platforms including the Commodore
PET, Radio Shack TRS80 and my Heathkit H8 and H11. I no longer have a
HP41CX but I do have several TI calculators including the TI84+ and
NSPIRE(s) and a HP48G. The TI84+ and the TI83+ it replaced are
programmable in a dialect of BASIC and can interface with through a
simple port and have more processing power and ram that those old 8 bit
computers that I mentioned above. Now you've got me thinking that I
should give something like a try too.
Good luck with your project.
cheers, Graham ve3gtc

Thanks everyone.
Also correction in the freq.
I should have said 470 MHz or 27 MHz. I also should have clarified that
this is speculation from previous launch downlink frequencies.
They did not file freqs with the ITU.

Gaussian Minimum Shift Keying...some of the soundcard software will decode
it, as will some packet modems. My suggestion is to watch some of the more
active JA hams webpages and blogs for the best information on how to use
these if and when they are opened for amateur use. JE9PEL is one page I look
at often for information on the JA satellites
http://www.ne.jp/asahi/hamradio/je9pel/
I sure wish some of these carried Mode J transponders, but I'll probably try
the digital payloads when available. It looks like they are using the V/U
system for initial checkout, and then to the 8GHz link once it's stabilized
and usable.

Not sure if it has been posted yet, but there is a good technical
write up of previous North Korean satellites here:
http://38north.org/2012/09/nhansen091212/
Some sites suggest 450 to 470Mhz is likely band. Ideally would need a
very high gain setup with a wideband SDR dongle to see any
transmissions. If they wanted they could turn all transmitters off
unless commanded or else only when the GPS says they are within range
of the ground station. Note the article linked is only the older
satellites.
I don't believe there was any public reception of actual emissions
from previous models. It does look likely UHF will be used. In this
day and age if it does emit on UHF constantly someone probably will
detect it and share. with possibly 6 UHF antennas there may be
multiple downlinks. I will buy a pint for whoever decodes the GPS
location downlink first!

Hi All,
Just to confirm that FUNcube-1 is now switching modes autonomously for the
week. The transponder will be active when the spacecraft is in eclipse. Low
power telemetry will also be transmitted during these periods. When the
spacecraft is in sunlight then high power telemetry will be transmitted.
We expect to revert to continuous transponder activity for the weekend from
next Friday evening as usual.

Steve, N9IP, will operate FO-29 today only from EL84, The Dry Tortugas
National Park (NPOTA NP17.) AOS at 16:41 UTC & 18:21 UTC.
Steve plans to operate about 30 KHz above the FO-29 passband center.
He is running a single Yaesu FT-817 with low power, operating
semi-duplex. If you transmit while he is transmitting, he will not
hear you.
