I was considering the Funcube Dongle Pro+ and ran across the new SDRplay
RSP2. I was wondering if anybody has experimented with it on the ham
satellites. I see it has three switchable antenna inputs and a bias T to
supply voltage for a pre amplifier.

An International Space Station school contact has been planned with
participants at South Street School, Danbury CT on 02 Feb. The event is
scheduled to begin at approximately 18:49 UTC. It is recommended that you
start listening approximately 10 minutes before this time. The duration of
the contact is approximately 9 minutes and 30 seconds. The contact will be a
telebridge between OR4ISS and ON4ISS. The contact should be audible over
Belgium and adjacent areas. Interested parties are invited to listen in on
the 145.80 MHz downlink. The contact is expected to be conducted in English.
There are two schools participating in this event; South Street Elementary
School and Westside Middle School Academy (WMSA).
Westside Middle School Academy offers students a unique opportunity to
partake in rigorous hands-on activities. There are two academies at
Westside, STEM and Global Studies. In the STEM academy, students take part
in engineering projects such as building small paper boats, designing escape
pods and launching weather balloons. Students also participate in the
Connecticut Invention Convention and Connecticut State Science Fair.
Teamwork is essential at Westside. Our teachers encourage us to go beyond
our limits and to give our best effort. In addition, Westside has a culture
of safety, respect and responsibility (S R 2), which ensures that all
students are learning in a safe environment. Finally, the diversity of our
school community enhances the learning experience for all students.
South Street School is one of 13 elementary schools in the city of Danbury.
The staff of South Street prides themselves on the diversity of the school
as it compares to the rest of the district as well as the state. The state
average for Hispanic students making up the school population is 22.1%,
South Street boasts a solid 64.5% Hispanic population. The "Melting Pot"
community that is found at the school allows for an incredible mix of
background experiences, cultural traditions and a wealth of different styles
of learning. The majority of students gets to and from school by walking
with their families or friends and the sense of community and family is
strongly felt in the school and the surrounding areas. Students at South
Street thrive in an environment that emphasizes inquiry based
Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:

An International Space Station school contact has been planned with
participants at Cours Saint Maur, Monaco, Monaco on 02 Feb. The event is
scheduled to begin at approximately 08:38 UTC. It is recommended that you
start listening approximately 10 minutes before this time. The duration of
the contact is approximately 9 minutes and 30 seconds. The contact will be a
telebridge between NA1SS and LU1CGB. The contact should be audible over
Argentina and adjacent areas. Interested parties are invited to listen in on
the 145.80 MHz downlink. The contact is expected to be conducted in French.
The Principality of Monaco is a territory of only 2.02 km2. It is the second
smallest independent state in the world (after the Vatican). At the time of
the last census in 2015, the Principalty had 38,400 inhabitants.
Monaco is located at the edge of the Mediterranean sea, along the French
Riviera, about twenty kilometers from Nice.
The principality is governed since 2005 by the sovereign Prince Albert II of
Monaco. This small country attracts many tourists (formula One Grand Prix,
the casino, the oceanographic museum, the prince's palace ...)
Our school "le cours Saint maur" is a private Catholic school under contract
and is located in Monaco. It hosts about 220 pupils from Kindergarten (3
years) to 5th Grade (10-11 years). This year, we will celebrate 80 years of
school.
For several years, my class participated in intergenerational meetings with
the Speranza Albert II center. This center is a day care center specialized
in the care of people affected by Alzheimer's disease Or with cognitive
impairment.
Intergenerational exchanges are an opportunity for sharing both cognitively
and emotionally. They allow an interaction where the two parts learn from
each other and allow mutual enrichment. Since September, we have been
working together on the "Thomas Pesquet" project. We meet twice a month at
the Speranza Center and we work in workshops in pairs with elderly people,
these are always moments full of emotion. The question Nr 6 below is
proposed by a resident of the Sperenza Center.
Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:
1. Comment faites-vous si quelqu'un tombe malade ou si il doit ?tre op?r??
2. Pour savoir l'heure, ? quel fuseau horaire vous r?f?rez-vous?
3. Quel est votre plus beau souvenir depuis votre d?part? Et votre plus

Mike, I use the SDRPlay RSP1 as a receiver with my FT-817 as Transmitter
for SSB sats. My setup is minimal, and am just using a Arrow antenna
mounted to a camera tripod. I do have a GaASFET preamp, but the LNA in the
SDRPlay seem to do the trick without the preamp. I use SDR Console
software, which is powerful and a lot of options in it. It is above and
beyond HDSDR and SDR#!!!
The other nice thing with using a SDRPlay on Sats, is you can see the entire
band for downlinks, and at a touch you can move to another signal in the
linear sats. I record the passes audio and listen to them back after also.
Hope this helps a little, and 73!

I have an SDRPlay RSP2. It is a nice receiver. On the satellites I've
copied the downlinks from AO-7, SO-50, AO-85, NO-44 (when it gets enough
sun), NO-84 packet, ISS packet and voice (school contacts), FO-29, AO-73
(voice and BPSK telemetry with the dashboard software), XW2-E or F, BY70-1.
When I get more time I'll install the FoxTelem software on this Dell laptop
which has become my preferred SDR computer.
Adding a virtual audio cable to the laptop, with the RSP2 as the receiver
I've received/decoded/displayed PSK-31, SSTV, RTTY, JT65, and packet on all
of the ham bands ... besides the usual AM, FM, SSB, CW signals on the bands.
I wasn't too happy with the performance of the RTL-SDR dongle on the
satellites. The RSP2 was a major improvement in performance. The price
difference was worth it. I got mine in-stock from the HRO store in
Milwaukee. I've been reading on the SDRPlay and SDRUno (their software)
groups on Facebook that some folks had currently been waiting a week or two
for delivery due the popularity of the rig.
Fun stuff ...

Is it really changing this fast?
This morning I Up-Dated Orbitron,
Ran a prediction, and around noon was gonna be a pass to see if I could
hear her.
This page,
http://www.satview.org/index.php
For my location at 6 AM had the pass happening about 10 minutes sooner
than what Orbitron predicted.
So I came up to the radio at the web sites time, fired up the web page,
and the bird had already passed and was deep in the southern hemisphere
already. WOW!
I re upped the tles again on Orbitron, and it too said down there. wow
are the tles changing this quickly.
And where can we go to get the most current up to the minute if possible
data?
Gonna be hard to try to see it re-enter if the times are this far off in
only a couple hours.

Hi Joe,
Looks page you mention could be using at times older keps.
I compared with other predictions and you are right, they were off by
about 10 minutes.
Give a try to http://lu7abf.com.ar/pass this page updates keps 8 times
a day, using the most recent, either celestrak.com or space-track.org
.
Good luck on next hunt of BY70-1
73, LU7ABF, Pedro

Kevin,
As far as I can tell, that is an error in between the Java Virtual Machine
and the OS. You could try getting the latest version of Java if you are
not already on that. But it might not be fixable ....
