Video can be downloaded from http://f6bvp.free.fr/amsat-f/media/sput40a.mov and a Web page (in French) is dedicated to this very first launch of a microsatellite from a space station. http://www.amsat-france.org/spipamsat/article.php3?id_article=59 73 de Bernard, f6bvp AMSAT France Founding President Hello Bernard Pidoux , F6BVP I remember very well the early pioniering years when you was the AMSAT-France President and particularly I remember your activity designing and launching ARSENE ,OSCAR-24. It was a very great effort of AMSAT-France even if only the S band transponder worked for at least tree monts but its performance was very good. The only problem was the S band downlink frequency of 2446.5 MHz because it was necessary to modify the actual 2400-2402 MHz downconvertes currently used for the U/S mode of OSCAR-13 In Italy only three stations were active on ARSENE i.e. i7UGO, i7LIT and i2BMV and unfortunately when my downconverter was modified and ready to work the S band transponder died because of problems of overheating. I am sorry that you retired from the charge of AMSAT-France President because durind your management many effort were made to build RS-17 Sputnik-40 and ARSENE OSCAR-24 By the way it seems that the actual BOD of AMSAT France voted to stop any activity i.e. it seems that AMSAT-France do not exist anymore. My friend Bernard please accept my congratulations for your past satellite activity ! Best 73 de i8CVS Domenico Past AMSAT-Italy President ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.
