pardon my caps lock on my post, I thought I was on the AO51 afternoon pass and I was yelling at the bird! in reference to the lapsed call heard on AO-51: Apparently several people heard/worked the station in question, the lapse could be an oversight or someone picked up this persons call. Based on what I heard the operator had been around the satellites previously. Maybe some one around him locally can ask him if he knows that the call has lapsed. The old FCC data base had him located in Alabama and he was giving out a grid locator of EL98, maybe he moved and lost track of his renewal date. We can give him the benefit of doubt until some one can ask if he knows that the license is shown as lapsed and recommend that he cease operation until he clears it up, altho' at the speed of government now-a-days that could be a while! well I said previously that was my two cents worth I guess i'm up to a nickle now! ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.

[amsat-bb] RAX-2 Launch In 30 Minutes
They're in the final hold, weather is awesome and everything looks good to go for the 0948 UTC launch. Much like RAX-1, RAX-2 will have an Amateur Radio beacon spitting out 500mW of 9600 baud GMSK every 20 seconds from it's right handed circularly polarized antenna... Such a spunky lil bird... Once she reaches orbit and the ground stations are able to track her they will upload the TLE data to their site. http://rax.engin.umich.edu/?page_id=308 -- Bryan Herbert - KE6ZGP Newhall, CA.

Watched the launch from Las Vegas, NV. It rose over the Spring Mountians and arced southwestly and just before it disappeared behind the neighbors rooftop, the first stage seperation occured. At first, it looked like a plane then I noticed the exhaust plume as it got bigger as it gained altitude. 73, Jeff WB3JFS - Original Message - From: Bryan Herbert ke6...@gmail.com To: amsat-bb@amsat.org Sent: Friday, October 28, 2011 2:20 AM Subject: [amsat-bb] RAX-2 Launch In 30 Minutes They're in the final hold, weather is awesome and everything looks good to go for the 0948 UTC launch.

Hi Roger The email list increases exponentially;-) I saw Jan's post with audio links. So just for completeness here's a file from the same spectrogram I posted yesterday, starting at around 09:33. The chuffs get quite loud and sometimes there's a double chuff, which I understand maybe from two Orbcomm sats.

[amsat-bb] Re: [Re: Prospero] Commanding Error
Hi Roger et al The spectrogram attached for the 1310z Prospero pass today shows a carrier between 13:16 and 13:20 that matches the Prospero doppler profile (pretty well vertical), and exactly on 137.560MHz. There was some Orbcomm chuffing reasonably weak in the background, so it could be an Orbcomm satellite that exactly matched the doppler profile for Prospero. I couldnt hear anything significant in the audio. This was received with a non directional antenna. Do you have a similar spectrogram received with a beam antenna. If the signal wasn't there then we may assume it was from Orbcomm or similar in a different beam direction. cheers all Tony Abbey - Senior Research Fellow (retired) Space Research Centre Dept of Physics and Astronomy University of Leicester University Road SRC Web page: http://www.src.le.ac.uk LEICESTER LE1 7RH, United Kingdom On 28 Oct 2011, at 10:25, Roger Duthie wrote: OK - so that's definitely Orbcomm (from the spectrogram).
