Don't forget about AO-7, AO-73 and UKUBE (FunCube-2)! Sadly, the OSCAR
satellite status page at amsat.org shows no transponder activity on LilacSat
for quite some time...
Your best shot at the FM birds is during the night (don't forget AO-85).

LilacSat-2 was apparently turned on this evening by the Harbin
Institute of Technology command station, but it didn't last very long.
It appears that the satellite suffers frequent resets and the FM
transponder mode doesn't stay active for very long.
Hope to work quite a few during Field Day! Remember to submit your
score to both the ARRL and AMSAT!

Paul, N8HM

Many thanks, Roland,
The preliminary tle was too much ahead in time for Doppler shift

All,
Detailed doppler measurements show that Swayam is object 41607,
2016-040J, and Lapan A3 is object 41603, 2016-040E.
Although it was suggested that Lapan A3 would not transmit on
amateur frequencies, it appears to have a data downlink on
437.325 MHz.

I pulled these from the AMSAT.ORG webpage. I dropped the list onto my

the FM and Linear birds that should be active.

Thanks to the maintainers at amsat.org and you. It's the kind of
comprehensive list that also helps the rest of the year!

I was called by a VK station in Perth Australia while testing my 5w rig and
hand held 70cm 10 element yagi in my attic!?
Not just once but twice 2 days running via the Oscar 13 satellite. Think it
was about 37000 km out in space in its elliptical orbit at the time. This
took place in the mid 1990s and was a good solid SSB contact.?
My QTH was IO90LW .... Clanfield just north of Portsmouth UK. Never did get
a QSL card!?
Anybody know who this may have been?

Try "ISS DETECTOR". Best satellite scheduling program I have encountered.
Lots more than just ISS.
For receiving with an RTL-SDR dongle and USB-to-go cable, "RF Analyzer"
works well. (SDR Touch is another similar but I have not had nearly as good
results)

Hello Steve,
On my Android Samsung Smartphone I use http://amsat.org.ar/pass.htm
It's not an app, just a web page, will easily show, track and announce
available Sats and frequencies, once started once will run even
without Internet.
Wishing good luck with the birds.
