Many of the SuitSat-2 team members will converge on Phoenix during
the weekend of July 10-12 for a system integration party. The team
expects to put all of the hardware modules together that have been 
developed in many parts of the country. SuitSat-2 Project Manager,
Gould WA4SXM said, "It is great to be at the point that we can start 
testing system operations with the hardware and software. The fun 
begins Friday July 10."  You can keep up with the integration activ-
ities next weekend using Twitter  http://twitter.com/GGouldSmith.

AO-51 Engineering Team Continues to Monitor Power Levels

Due to the increasing time AO-51 is spending in eclipse AMSAT 
Vice-President of Operations, Drew KO4MA reports that transmitter 
power levels have needed to be reduced. This way the batteries will 
provide enough power to keep the satellite operational when the 
solar cells are not providing charging current. AO-51 users have 
already noted the weaker signals on the downlinks.

The AO-51 Control Team Web Page for latest operating information will
carry the latest status of the satellite. See:
http://www.amsat.org/amsat-new/echo/CTNews.php

AMSAT now has a Twitter account at http://twitter.com/AMSAT where the 
AO-51 Operations Team will try to tweet things too small for ANS bull-
etins or email, but of interest to the general AMSAT community. The
most recent tweet reported, "AO-51 is in "normal" mode, telemetry on 
435.150 @ 240mw, V/u repeater on 435.300 @ 290mw."

Gould, WA4SXM, AO-51 Ground Control Station said, "The eclipse time 
should start to decrease over the next few days hopefully allowing 
improvement in the transmitter power settings."

Gould continues with the news, "The AO-51 telemetry archive is up to 
date as of last night.  AO-51 telemetry data is available in raw for-
mat, CSA (comma separated variable) format that has the channel data 
converted by the configuration equations and there are some Excel files 
(most with graphs). There are a number of Excel files with graphs for 
June 2009 as that was a very interesting month for AO-51 operation. I 
encourage exploration of the data and any insights gleaned."

The telemetry archive can be found at:

Special Event Station 4C50C via Satellite From Mexico

Omar XE1AO, a regular satellite operator from central Mexico, 
reported news of a special callsign that will be showing up
on the satellites between now and 31 August 2009.  

The call, 4C50C ("Four Charlie Fifty Charlie"), is part of the 
"Trabaja Todo Colima" (Work All Colima) special event currently 
taking place in the central Mexican state of Colima.  This event 
is commemorating the 50th anniversary of the creation of the J. 
Roberto Levy radio club in that state.

During the months of June, July, and August, stations from all
over Colima have been on HF and the satellites, trying to put all
10 Colima "municipios" (municipalities, similar to counties in 
the USA) on the air.  On HF, the special call XE50C has been used 
from different parts of Colima.  Now, four hams (XE1AO, XE1ATZ, 
XE1AY, and XE1J) have been authorized by the Mexican  telecommun-
ications regulator CoFeTel to use 4C50C on the satellites as part 
of this event.  

Initially, XE1AO will attempt to put 4C50C on AO-51's evening
passes along with VO-52 and FO-29 evening passes.  Omar and the
other 3 hams hope to expand the use of 4C50C onto SO-50 and AO-27,
plus look at passes at other times of the day during this period. 

For hams outside Mexico, XE1J is the QSL manager for these special
calls.  The Mexican QSL bureau will take care of QSL requests from
XE hams.  Along with the QSL cards, there will be a certificate
available to stations that work stations in at least 7 of the 10 
Colima municipalities and also accumulate at least 74 points based 
on the location of the stations worked in Colima.  Additional 
points are available for working certain stations like XE50C and 
4C50C.
