Hello Everyone,
The ANS news bulletins have traditionally been sent out using a packet
header format. In the year now approaching 2012 we're no longer sure how
many VHF-UHF PBBS systems are re-distributing ANS bulletins via RF-based
AX.25. Perhaps the packet header is no longer a requirement for
Ferrll,
There are at least a few more days from an orbital standpoint, and so far
the electronics are holding up. BOTE calculation gives a descent rate
approaching 5 km/day, and rapidly increasing.
Just remember that as a practical matter it will be impossible to have Keps
with the accuracy
Anyone near Kingston Ontario or Watertown, NY that can contact VE3FFR?
His email is not listed with QRZ and I need to ask him to shut down his
PCSAT beacon. This would reduce the load on PCSAT so that maybe I can get a
command in to get control and maybe make a recovery.
Next recovery effort
Almost recovered. Mike got command over Germany (DK3WN) but it did not
hold.
At 1300z pass over east coast, I got 3 telemetry packets, 5, 6 and 8
minutes into the pass with Latitude between 29N and 39N. The first packet
showed +Z (best panel) current was 93 mA.
Above that latitude, packets

An often used rule-of-thumb in astrodynamics for decay height is about 140
kilometers
which is about 87 miles. A satellite that gets that far into the atmosophere
will burn up during
it's final orbit in short order! I would recommend you just keep trying until
you are sure

Does ARISS have a FM repeater on it, or only a linear transponder? I can't
see to find the frequencies for the repeater if there is one, only the
transponder frequencies.

Hi Jim,
Looking forward to your ARISSat-1 decay posting.
My plots suggest the bird will be down to 140km around 11th of January,
provided the SFI and A index stay similar to current values

Greetings,
The decay rate of ARISSat-1 has slowed down from the last decay prediction
I produced on 2011 Dec. 14.
It currently appears that ARISSat-1 (37772) will now decay on 2012 January 3
plus or minus a day. Caveat lector.
