Just been looking at the tracking site http://www.n2yo.com/satellites Some great stuff on this site and thanks for posting the URL to the bb. At the bottom of the amateur radio satellite page there is a listing for OPS9328 (IDSCS 15) Were they ham satellites, I don't recal reading about them. Is this just a simple mistake in the listing? 73 john g7hia. Hi John, G7HIA The OPS9328 launched in 1967 was not an amateur satellite as you can read here. http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/nmc/masterCatalog.do?sc=1967-003H By the way it is possible that the downlink frequency was very close to the 2 meters band but I was not able to find any information about the frequency. 73" de i8CVS Domenico _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.
