Hi Bob, all
for tracking Deep Space Object we use ephemeris generated from JPL's
Horizons, see here

Dear All,
Here is some information about ARTSAT2:DESPATCH.
http://artsat.jp/en/despatch/
You also get additional information from here:
http://artsat.jp/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/despatch_abstract_en_ver1.0.pdf
ARTSAT2:DESPATCH do not have a transponder,
but it will create and transmit the 'Generative Poetry in Space'.
They ask that we attempt reception of these very weak signals at our radio sta
tions.

Hi,
JPL's Horizons Web Site will likely
have these objects in their data base
when launched. From there you can
get RA/Dec or generate AZ/EL for your
QTH. You can enter RA/Dec into NOVA
and it will track it like any other
celestial target. Not sure if other satellite
programs have this feature.

On an early morning FO-29 pass I was doing some SDR desense tests. I was
looking for an open spot to do the tests so as to not interfere with
anyone. I send a bunch of dots or dashes to check the downlink signal on
the SDR and identify myself with the call sign. There were some ssb
contacts going on and some CW so I had to move from time to time. It
seemed as if I was often in danger of interfering with a cw contact so I
would have to move frequently. The sdr latency is an issue when trying to
monitor your cw downlink. I heard my callsign on the downlink and thought
that a two second latency delay was a bit much. I finally figured out that
someone was calling me - it was the person that I had been trying to not
interfere with by moving away from his frequency. It was K9CIS. He deserves
an award for working someone who was not even trying to make a contact. He
is a very skilled operator who had no trouble with the fact that I was
operating without any Doppler correction and I had been jumping (not
swooping) around trying to stay off his frequency for some time. Well done.

Peter,
I understand from you message that you are using UI-View software.
I had much more success when sending packets via the ISS when I changed
from UI-View to UISS. It is written specifically for the ISS and PCSAT.
It is much easier to correctly configure.

I'm not to sure quite what these words mean "The satellite will have four

ARLS006 73 on 73 Award Period Now Underway
Paul Stoetzer, N8HM, is sponsoring a new award for contacts made via
the UK Amateur Radio Educational Satellite FUNcube-1 (AO-73) to
promote activity on the satellite. It is called the 73 on 73 award.
The award period began on September 1.
More information on FUNCUBE may be found on the web at,
http://funcube.org.uk/ .
Requirements are simple: Work 73 different stations on AO-73 (SSB or
CW). There are no geographic restrictions on operating location, no
QSLs are required, and the award is free.
E-mail log extracts containing the call sign of each station worked
and the date/time (UTC) of each contact to, n8hm@xxxx.xxx. Include
your mailing address.
The AO-73 inverting transponder uplink is 435.150-435.130 MHz (LSB).
The downlink is 145.950-145.970 MHz (USB). Use no more than 5 W to a
7 dBi gain antenna when accessing the AO-73 transponder.

Ironically, I too operated the pass Tom referenced. This was my first
attempt at making a satellite contact after a too long time away. While
searching for my downlink signal, I heard Tom's, but not my own signal.
Despite that, Frank (K9CIS) kindly called me back and we completed a
pleasant QSO. Frank warmly welcomed me back to the sats. I've worked
Frank many times and, during those QSO's, he always made me feel like I'm
the most important person in the world. Before he retired, Frank was a
scholar, but I also know him as a gentleman.

Dear all,
Good morning from Tokyo!
ARTSAT1: INVADER (CO-77) decayed yesterday. It was only 186 days since
launch. However, we are so glad that many hams listen and report it.
ARTSAT team is now concentrating the next project, ARTSAT2: DESPATCH as
announced by JI1IZR last night.
We are continuously going to develop our concept and philosophy through the
creation of artworks using the data from INVADER and launch of next
deep-space amateur spacecrafts, DESPATCH. We would be grateful for your
continued cooperation.
Thanks again and all the best,
Akihiro Kubota, ARTSAT Project
