SO-50 SAUDISAT-1C
Catalog number: 27607
Launched: December 20, 2002

Status: Operational.

Uplink:    145.850 MHz (67.0 Hz PL tone) (See below for operating
          procedures)
Downlink:  436.795 MHz

There have been unconfirmed reports on the amsat-bb remailer that SO-50 has
shifted downlink frequency as much as 5khz up. This both from Europe.

To switch the transmitter on, you need to send a CTCSS tone of  74.4  Hz.
The
order of operation is thus: (allow for Doppler as necessary)

1) Transmit on 145.850 MHz with a tone of 74.4 Hz to arm
   the 10 minute timer on board the spacecraft.
2) Now transmit on 145.850 MHz (FM Voice) using 67.0 Hz to PT
   the repeater on and off within the 10 Minute window.
3) Sending the 74.4 tone again within the 10 minute window
   will reset the 10 minute timer.

John, N4QWL reports on July 16th, 2005:

Last evening I had a AOS to LOS qso with WI2W. FO-29 came up at 01:17z here
in FM07 and I found WI2W and we chatted until 01:33z. The satellite was at 2
degrees elevation when I finally heard him start to crackle a bit. What a
great QSO! To think that I watched this bird launch back in 1996 and it is
still working so well is a real thrill. I believe I still have the video. I
might just look for it and watch it again. Boy do I love this satellite
stuff!
Look for you all up there.

Please send the reception reports to lab2 'at' jarl.or.jp.
Please use the subject line: 'FO-29 reception report'.

Mineo, JE9PEL, has an FO-29 satellite telemetry analysis program that will
automatically analyze all digital telemetry from the satellite (such as
current, voltage and temperature). FO29CWTE is available at:

 http://www.rac.ca/ariss/oindex.htm#New%20ARISS%20Operations :
The ARISS program is pleased to announce that the amateur radio equipment
aboard the International Space Station is now operating in cross-band repeat
mode. We realize that many of you will miss the packet-operating mode. How-
ever, cross-band repeat allows further experimentation of the ISS amateur
radio system

The downlink for this operating mode remains the same, so listen for the
stat-
ion on 145.80 MHz. The new uplink frequency is 437.80 MHz. All frequencies
are
subject to Doppler shifting. For further information on working satellites
and
adjusting for Doppler shift, please review Emily Clark's (W0EEC) excellent
presentation on AMSAT's website:
http://www.amsat.org/amsat-new/information/faqs/Intro_sats.pdf

The ISS daily crew schedule can be found at:

CUTE-1
Catalog number: 27844
Launched: June 30,2003

Status: Operational

Uplink:          ?
Downlink:     436.8375 CW
              437.4700 1200 FM ax25 or SRLL (ACTIVE only near Japan ? )
Cliff, K7RR reports:
In the latest Weekly Satellite Report, CUTE 1, #27844 is listed as
OPERATIONAL?
Indeed it is very operational as a CUBESAT sending CW telemetry on
436.8345 MHz.  At the July 7 2005, 23:45:20 pass over the Western USA:
CUTE 1 6B A4 xx 7F D7 66A8 4702 FF FF7C 65
CUTE 1 6C A6 59 80 D9 66A8 4702 FF FE7C B6

The June 30th KEPS were within ten seconds of AOS and LOS. It is an very
good object to practice tracking as the orbit and transmitter power are
similar to proposed CUBESATS awaiting launch this December.  As a check for
Doppler correction, the lack of change in tone is an excellent indicator.

CUTE 1 is a Japanese (Tokyo Institute of Technology) one kilogram
nanosatellite that was launched by a Rokot rocket from Plesetsk at
14:15 UT on 30 June 2003. It carries a 100 mW beacon at 436.8375 MHz.
Initial orbital parameters were period 101.4 min, apogee 831 km, perigee
819 km, and inclination 98.7?.

Clive Wallis wrote, "Very many thanks for all the recent reports of
OSCAR-11, on AMSAT-BB and by direct e-mails.  I received the good news,
on Saturday morning, while at the AMSAT-UK Colloquium.  This was entirely
unexpected!

When I returned home on Sunday, I heard the passes at 17:21 & 19:02 UTC,
and have heard many others since.

Signals seem to be weaker than usual. However,since I last heard the
satellite on 30 April, I've reinstalled my antennas , which makes
comparisons difficult.

All the analogue telemetry channels, 0 to 59 are zero, ie they have
failed.  The status channels 60 to 67 are still working. One bit in
channel 62, DSR mode, has changed from WRITE to READ.  DSR is the
Digital Store & Readout experiment. This could be significant if the
experiment is still drawing current, but the other status bit indicates
thet it is switched OFF.

The on-board clock is now showing a very large error.  It has lost
approximately 15 days since 30 April.  I'll be monitoring the clock
closely to see whether it changes at a constant rate, in future passes.

Eclipses should end around mid August.  That should help the satellite
to continue transmitting.

If the watchdog timer is still working, the satellite should switch OFF
in the next 10 to 20 days. I would appreciate if listeners could just
make a note of the DATE & UTC time when they hear the satellite, so that
when it switches OFF we can determine when it was last heard.  Please
post your reports to AMSAT-BB or e-mail me direct g3cwv@amsat.org, but
NOT until it switches OFF!

THE FOLLOWING ARE IN ORBIT BUT ARE
NON-OPERATIONAL AT THIS TIME:

POSAT-1 PO-28
Catalog Number: 22829
Launched : September 25, 1993

Status: Operational - Not open for Amatuer use

Downlink: 435.250 MHz
          435.275 MHz

Uplink:   145.925 MHz
          145.975 MHz

Broadcast callsign: POSAT1-11
BBS callsign: POSAT1-12

PO-28 (POSAT-1), Portugal's first satellite, launched 12 years ago,
will be turned over to Amateur Radio use in the very near future. That
was the word July 30 from AMSAT-UK Secretary Jim Heck, G3WGM, during the
AMSAT-UK International Space Colloquium in Guildford, England.

Launched September 25, 1993, the satellite operated as a packet store-
and-forward BBS (9600 baud FM FSK) on Amateur Radio frequencies for several
weeks in early 1994. Over the years, PO-28's primary usage has been commer-
cial, although plans have called for eventually shifting its operation to
ham radio use. G3WGM reports that following lengthy negotiations it has
been agreed that the satellite can be switched permanently to amateur
frequencies. The changeover is expected to take a couple of weeks.

The Portuguese satellite was built at the University of Surrey as part of a
collaborative satellite technology program that involved industry and
academe. Uplink frequencies will be 145.925 and 145.975 MHz. Downlink
frequencies will be 435.250 and 435.275 MHz. More information on PO-28
is on the AMSAT Web site http://www.amsat.org/amsat/sats/n7hpr/po28.html.

Uplink Frequencies:   145.925 and 145.975 MHz
Downlink Frequencies: 435.250 and 435.275 MHz

Orbit: 822 x 800 km, 98.6 deg inclined, sun-synchronous.

Transponder capabilities include FM repeater and 38k4 data.  If you want
to hear how loud this satellite is, listen on 429.950 until the change back
to amateur radio service.

Keplerian elements for PO-28 are not currently contained in the AMSAT
keps bulletins, but can be found at Celestrak in amateur.txt using the
name "POSAT". Users of Space Track should query the NORAD Satellite ID
number 22829. The name listed by Space Track is "EYESAT A".

The spacecraft is in MBL (safe mode) and is trasmitting just 6 channels
of telemetry. Temperatures and voltage are nominal, but there seems to
be a problem with the onboard receiver, refusing to accept commands.
The spacecraft was launched in 1993, thus nearing 12 years in orbit...

Uplink 435.275 1200-baud AFSK
Downlink 145.825 9600-baud FSK
(optional voice message)
Broadcast callsign: DP0AIS

AO-49 (SAFIR-M) is a German amateur radio payload onboard the small German
scientific satellite "RUBIN-2".

AO-49 was built by the German amateur radio association "AATiS
e.V." (German
acronym for "Arbeitskreis Amateurfunk und Telekommunikation in der Schule",
which means: 'working group for amateur radio anand telecommunications in
schools'). AO-49 is designed as a "store and broadcast" system for APRS
based messages, dedicated for the use of schools in combination with the
existing WX-Net and planned buoy experiments in Germany.

No transmissions detected since the 1st of February 2003! It appears
AO-49 is not properly aligned to illuminate the solar panels. This
should end soon. Due to its orbit, AO-49 will be in a phase without
eclipses until 13Feb03.

Martin DG8UAU has written a small software program "SAFIR-M Decoder" to
allow decoding of the received DATA0 frames. It is available at:

PCSAT2 ?0-??
Catalog Number:
Proposed Launch Date: August 1, 2005

Status: Onboard International Space Station

PCSAT2 was installed on the exterior of the International Space
Station and was activated on August 3, 2005.

The PCSAT2 mission is intended as an opportunity to augment existing
ARISS communications experiments with an external autonomous communi-
cations payload. In this regard, it has several potential uses:

*  A UI-Digipeater to help ease congestion on the currently shared
   ARISS PMS (Packet Mail system)

*  A PSK-31 transponder for multi-user communications to improve
   accessibility for schools and ARISS outreach programs.

*  An FM Voice repeater for full duplex crew communications to
   facilitate crew-to-school ARISS contacts.

*  Routine Telemetry on the spacecraft systems

The current mode available for amateur radio use activated on
August 3 includes 1200 and 9600 baud telemetry on 437.975 +/- 9 KHz
of Doppler shift.  Conventional 1200 baud APRS IGate stations are
encouraged to tune over to the downlink and feed anything you capture.

9600 baud capable stations are encouraged to capture the special 9600
baud downlink and email to PC2@grc.nasa.gov and if they have IGate
software (or the latest ALOGGER 2.0.2) to feed it live to:
satgate.aprsca.net port 20150.  (ALOGGER2.02 is available from:
http://www.billdiaz.dynip.com/)

Please, no transmissions on the uplink.  The PCSAT2 Team will announce
when the satellite is open for general use in a few weeks.

The PCSAT2 web pages are temporarily unavailable because the server at
the U.S. Naval Academy is without power for several days.  When this
server is restored see:
http://web.usna.navy.mil/~bruninga/pcsat2.html

An on-line overview of PCSAT2 telemetry can be found at:
http://www.pcsat2.info

1200 baud telemetry is just an occasional packet every 10 or 60
seconds.  1200 baud stations can simply feed their downlinks directly
into the global APRS system like normal.  These will help update the
LIVE PCSAT2 telemetry page by G4DPZ at:
http://www.pcsat2.info/PCSat2Web/RealTime.jsp

PCSAT2 was mentioned at SlashDot ...
http://science.slashdot.org/science/05/08/04/0053242.shtml?tid=160&tid=126

Packets seen from PCSAT2 can be reviewed at:
http://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/pcsat2.cgi

A screen shot of both the 9600 bps and 1200 bps decoded data
as seen by Simon, 9W2QC, can be seen at:
http://www.9w2qc.net/pcsat2/

Tuning hints for doppler shift:  At AOS the UHF signal from PCSAT2
will be as much as 9 KHz high and at LOS will be as much as 9 KHz
low.  But at these times the doppler is *changing* the least and
this is probably the best time to catch a complete file without any
tuning glitches.

In the middle of the pass, the Doppler rate of change is the highest
and although the signal will be strongest, over the center 2 minutes
the doppler will shift as much as 8 KHz!  This is why we expect to
have to combine files  from multiple users to get a complete set of
data.

PHASE 3E ?O-??
Catalog Number:
Proposed Launch Date: Early 2006

Status: Under Construction

William Leijenaar, PE1RAH reports on July 16th, 2005:

Hi AMSATs,

I always like to inform the AMSATs public about my P3e work, but
unfortunatly due to
some reasons there was not much time and nothing much to say...

However, now I am happy to announce that the my MODE-UV transponder design
for P3e is ready at the P3e integration place in Marburg (Germany). About 4
weeks ago I was in Marburg before, where the transponder has been checked.
Unfortunatly some unsure things were found in the design. The unsure things
were about long term stability after many years in space.

At home in The Netherlands, I changed the design with some minor changes to
have a secure long term stability. Finally I tested the transponder again
and it performed well within the specifications. Again something learned for
future transponder designs :o)

Last Wednesday I drove to AMSAT-DL P3e integrations place in Marburg again,
and have my transponder again checked. In the beginning it seemed that the
70cm receiver lost 10dB in sensetivity. After some more measurements we find
out that it was due to a bad attenuator we used for protection at the input.

Together with Karl Meinzer we looked for any problems, but so far we could
see (without HELAPS) all was okay. In the afternoon I went back home again,
this time without the MODE-UV.

Now the MODE-UV will get a new home, the home of P3e... :o)
I hope the transponder will work like its elder sister in AO-10, and you all
will enjoy it for many years...

It was lots of work to get it this far, but I know it is for a good
purpose...
