Hi Dinesh, Is this a cubesat, or a microsat? The webpage indicates it is 286mmx286mmx294mm and 10kg, which is more the size of AO-51 than a 100mm^3 cubesat.
Is there any possibility of a secondary amateur communications mission? Good Luck with the launch. 73, Drew KO4MA -----Original Message----- >From: Dinesh Cyanam <din...@cyanam.net> >Sent: Oct 10, 2011 1:43 PM >To: amsat-bb@amsat.org >Subject: [amsat-bb] SRMSAT Keps and Down Link Details > >SRMSAT, A cubesat developed by the students of SRM University, India will be >launched on October 12th, 2011 along with the Megha Tropique satellite on the >PSLV-C18 launch vehicle from ISRO's spaceport in Sriharikota, India. > >Payload Details: >SRMSAT will monitor the green house gases in near infrared region (900nm - >1700nm). > >Launch Date and Time: >October 12, 2011 >0530 hrs UTC > >Telemetry down link and CW beacon on the same frequency: 437.425 MHz (10 dbm) >(Telemetry decoding info will be posted soon) > >Preliminary TLEs from ISTRAC (ISRO Telemetry, Tracking and Command Network): >SRM >1 99999U 11072A 11278.34967500 .00001077 00000-0 60876-3 0 1233 >2 99999 20.0603 97.4017 0010015 338.6461 208.4324 14.09199968 14 > >Website: http://srmsat.in > >All Radio Amateurs are requested to track SRMSAT and provide us with the >reception reports via AMSAT-BB mailing list or via email to KC2YQJ <at> >arrl.net > >73 >KC2YQJ >Dinesh Cyanam > > _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.
