> Sorry for a stupid question. Do you listen to FM-DSB with an FM or SSB > receiver? Thanks It's not a stupid question. You transmit FM on 435 and listen on SSB on 145, note that although the IARU site says the ICUBE satellite has that capability no indication has yet been given as to when or if it will be used. 73 Trevor M5AKA ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.

[amsat-bb] Re: UniSat 5 Update + WREN + ICUBE-1
When placed in that mode, you transmit on FM voice, and listen on SSB (or I suppose AM would work too). We did this with AO-16 after the digital system gave up the ghost. It's a neat trick that has been integrated into some of the commercial cubesat radio systems. You'll see this on the Triton-1 sat in 3 or so months as well. 73, Drew KO4MA -Original Message- >From: Douglas Phelps >Sent: Nov 25, 2013 3:20 PM >To: M5AKA , AMSAT BB >Subject: [amsat-bb] Re: UniSat 5 Update + WREN + ICUBE-1 > >Sorry for a stupid question.

Hi, You listen with SSB. Unlike regular SSB, you can use either USB or LSB, though I stick with USB. 73s, Alan WA4SCA <-Original Message- mailto:amsat-bb-boun...@amsat.org] On Behalf Of Douglas Phelps <> From: M5AKA <>To: AMSAT BB <>Sent: Monday, November 25, 2013 2:02 PM <>Subject: [amsat-bb] UniSat 5 Update + WREN + ICUBE-1 <> <> <>GAUSS have issued an update on the UniSat-5 mission, see <> <> <>http://amsat-uk.org/2013/11/25/unisat-5-mission-update-november-24/ <> <>They mention that the SSTV PocketQube WREN team have detected <> <>Possible Keps are: <> <> <>WREN <>1 39422U 13066G 13326.48861818 -.0055 0-0 0+0 0 75 <>2 39422 097.8066 039.1177 0023760 211.9046 148.0730 14.86334042 151 <> <>http://amsat-uk.org/2013/10/24/wren-a-ham-radio-sstv-pocketqube/ <> <> <>ICUBE-1 is listed by IARU as having a BPSK beacon that has http://amsat-uk.org/2013/11/24/foundation-radio-amateur-first- <> <> <>73 Trevor <>M5AKA <>AMSAT-UK website http://amsat-uk.org/ <>Facebook https://www.facebook.com/pages/AMSAT-UK/208113275898396 <>Twitter https://twitter.com/AMSAT_UK <> <>___ <>Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.
