To be confirmed when the objects have more separation.
HI all
I am at a loss on how to load new sats and elements. Can anyone held?
Thanks Hans ZS6AKV

To help us calibrate our receiver system does somebody know the EIRP of the

use as a reference?

Hello Wouter,
Its 1135 am (GMT) here in Wales ( UK ) and pleased to report that I am
hearing the satellite quite strong with just my Elk antenna and Kenwood
TS2000.
Not yet set to record or decode the data but pleased to see the satellite
in is in good health.
Congratulations to the Team.
After some commanding difficulties - actually caused by a setup error here
at the ground station, we can confirm that AO-73 was switched into
autonomous mode during our pass on Orbit 32. Your reports are awaited with
interest!

Hi Graham
Transponder switched to eclipse mode OK about mid pass over ZL. Good
signals from the transponder and had a brief contact with VK2MAL.

You can add new TLE's by using the Edit-Update TLE and choose network or
local files. I've found it interesting to get some of the funcube TLE's in
there, maybe Gpredict is being picky but it's worked. Also, there's a
downward facing arrow in the top right window of Gpredict with a
configure menu
Hi Shamai,
this is correct. You need a TNC emulation and a software which decodes the
data into a kiss file. See my latest blog entry :
http://www.dk3wn.info/p/?p=38750
The next step is to decode the kiss file - I need more information from the
TRITON team. If they give me the information

Just wondering why you would activate the transponder without having power
through the solar panels and consequently discharging the batteries (unless
that's the intent). Maybe I am missing

Good point.
Now from what I read they are running the telemetry mode at the same time
with lower power.

This may be a dumb question but did you close the program and restart again
before checking to see if it worked? SATPC32 needs to be restarted after
you make any changes in the files it reads.

Hi All,
Yes in telemetry (also known as educational) mode we have around 300mW and
this is a much higher average RF output than when in amateur (also known as
transponder) mode.
Total current drain is therefore greater when in educational mode. This is
convenient because we had planned
