NO-83, NO-84, and AO-85 were inadvertently left out of the AMSAT keps
distribution this week. That has since been corrected. Though they are
now available in the drop down box, the AMSAT pass prediction page is
not returning results for those satellites. I am looking into this
issue.

HI,
AMSAT-DL has the answer for this discussion, while they decide to give a
response, this is in an information obtained from an AMSAT-DL presentation.

http://mstl.atl.calpoly.edu/~bklofas/Presentations/AMSATUK2009/3b_Gulzow-P3E.p

El 08/06/17 a las 00:50, Robert Bruninga escribi?:

Unless I missed something, this still does not answer the question.  The
value of 40 mm is *not* a major dimension of the P3 frame.  Neither is
40cm.

The question was these dimensions, 600 x 40 x 200.  They don't make sense
in mm...

Please advise. Or at least if you are going to say "all dimensinos are in
mm" please tell us *what* dimensions are being talked about?  This thread
all has to do with the dimensions qquoted above.

Dear friend or member of AMSAT,

The Radio Amateur Society of Thailand under the patronage of His Majesty
the King (RAST) has received support and funding for the JAISAT-1 project
from Thailand's regulator, the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications
Commission from its Fund for the Research and Development of Broadcasting,
Television and Telecommunications for Public Benefit - BTFP.

Construction of the Linear Transponder has been completed and this module
is now in the process of construction and assembly by Innovative Solutions
in Space (ISIS) in the Netherlands. The society has also received
permission from the NBTC to set up a Ground Station (GS) with the callsign
HS0AJ together with funding to purchase an Icom IC-9100 transceiver, a
G5500 rotor together with computer equipment to be used at the GS HS0AJ and
this has now been set up and completed.

However, we have encountered problems in finding an appropriate program for
automatic tracking of the satellite. We have installed the Ham Radio Deluxe
program on the Windows 10 operating system on the computer but we have
encountered many problems such as the IC-9100 driver being unable to
communicate with the computer while the Ham Radio Deluxe program has been
unable to control or send commands to the Fox Delta Antenna Rotor Control.

The primary purpose of the HS0AJ ground station is to track all amateur
radio satellites that pass over Thailand in all modes by setting up a
tracking schedule plan for automatic tracking on a daily or weekly basis.
Our goal is to forward the audio of satellite signals from the Icom IC-9100
as they pass over Thailand to the RAST website to enable Thai amateur radio
operators to monitor these signals online in RAST website and Echolink
program.

RAST would like to seek advice from our AMSAT friends worldwide regarding
any recommendations of a automated satellite tracking program suitable for
the objectives of our ground station.

Thanking you in advance and with respect,

Tanan Rangseeprom,
JAISAT Project Manager

Greetings,

I'll also be at Ham-Com working at the AMSAT booth and working AO-85
for demonstrations.  I plan on working the following passes, although
some of them will be problematic.

I'll be working from the top of the parking garage to try to get above
most of the ground clutter.  I'll probably be going by my call sign
AE5PH, as I'm in my home grid square, unless I am prevailed upon to use
the AMSAT club call sign mentioned by Gabe.

Hope to see you at Ham-Com or on the satellites!

73,

Mac / AE5PH

Sawadeekrap Khun Tanan,

Good to head about your satellite project and its progress.

As for automatic antenna controlling of antenna and IC-9100H, do take a look
at WXtrack.  We have used this successfully for a few amateur ground station
setup here and we are happy with its flexibility and ability to switch as
scheduled automatically (although you need the paid version to unlock this
feature).

WXtrack communicates with the IC-9100H directly but requires WISPDDE to
communicate with the LVB tracker.  Both software works fine on Windows 7 -
we have not tested this on Windows 8 or 10 yet.

Hope this information helps and I wish you all the best with your mission.

73,
Sion Chow Q. C.,

A while back AMSAT-UK issued certificates/QSL cards to folks who
downloaded telemetry from AO-73. Does anyone know if there is a
corresponding certificate/QSL for EO-88? I couldn't find any info about
this on the AMSAT-UK website.

(Yes, I do collect wallpaper.)

How about a 3SK121Y? You can get them from RFPARTS for about $5.00.

Hi folks,

AO73/FUNcube-1 is now in amateur mode.

Switch back to educational mode is planned for Sunday pm UTC as usual.

Have FUN everyone!

Please see below for all FUNcube mission info

73s Jim G3WGM and the FUNcube team.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
FUNcube frequencies and other details
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

AO-73 FUNcube-1

The transponder is normally operational only when the satellite is in
eclipse, ie the solar panels are NOT being illuminated. During weekends
(from pm Fridays UTC to PM Sundays UTC) the transponder is operational 24/7.

When the transponder is switched off, the telemetry beacon is on full power,
when the transponder is on the beacon it is on low power. During holidays,
eg Christmas, New Year, Easter, etc, the transponder maybe activated for
extended periods. Watch AMSAT-BB for announcements which are usually made on
Friday evenings (UTC)

The nominal transponder frequencies are:

Uplink:   435.150 - 435.130 MHz LSB (Inverting)
Downlink:   145.950 - 145.970 MHz USB
Telemetry Tx: 145.935 MHz BPSK

(The passband may be up to 15kHz higher depending on on-board temps. Lower
temperatures give higher freqs!)

FUNcube-2 (aka FUNcube on UKube)

The FUNcube-2 sub-system continues to operate autonomously and, almost
continuously, in amateur mode. The transponder is operational and the
telemetry downlink is functioning with about 70mW output. The FUNcube-1
Dashboard does not correctly display the telemetry but it does correctly
decode the data and uploads it to the FUNcube Data Warehouse from where it
can be examined. Most of the real time data channels are operational and
these include battery voltages, temperatures and ADCS data coming via the
main On Board Computer (OBC).

The transponder is interrupted for a few seconds every 2 minutes when the
other transmitter sends its CW beacon and, occasionally, for a few seconds
when the main OBC reboots (approx seven times each orbit).

The nominal transponder frequencies are:
Uplink:   435.080 - 435.060 MHz LSB (Inverting)
Downlink:   145.930 - 145.950 MHz USB
Telemetry Tx: 145.915 MHz BPSK

(The passband may be up to 10kHz higher depending on on-board temps. Low
temperatures give higher freqs!)


EO79 FUNcube-3
Due to power budget constraints the transponder cannot be operational 24/7
and an orbit specific schedule has been developed. The transponder will
commence operation 27 minutes after the spacecraft enters sunlight and will
stay on for a period of 25 minutes. This schedule may be modified in future
months as a result of experience.

The nominal transponder frequencies are:
Uplink: 435.0723-435.0473 MHz LSB (Inverting)
Downlink: 145.946-145.971 MHz USB

Further detailed info on EO79 transponder frequencies is at:
https://amsat-uk.org/2016/11/10/eo79-funcube-3-transponder-commences-regular-o
peration/


EO88/Nayif-1/FUNcube-5

EO88 is presently operating in autonomous mode. The transponder is
operational when the satellite is in eclipse, ie the solar panels are NOT
being illuminated.
When the transponder is switched off, the telemetry beacon is on full power,
when the transponder is on the beacon it is on low power.
The transponder frequencies are:

Uplink:  435.045 ? 435.015 MHz LSB (inverting)
Downlink: 145.960-145.990 MHz USB
Telemetry  Tx: 145.940MHz

All FUNcube transponders are sponsored by AMSAT-UK and AMSAT-NL. We are very
grateful for the assistance given by Innovative Solution In Space Bv, The
Netherlands.
