Hi!
Sorry for another wave-off. For the first time in a little while,
rain hit the Phoenix area. I won't work any of the passes tonight,
and - weather, and work, permitting - I am still planning to try
SO-50 tomorrow around midday. Since I'm not working passes tonight,
I may try to at least do
All,
I got an email from a team member in Budapest and apparently the automatic
server side storage is online and functioning. He said use the latest version
of the software. Apparently it works for folks over there. Unfortunately there
are no details about how to configure it and what to do if
Same here,
Also, their website shows 0 received packets for all registered
amateurs on the map!
So lets see if they get it to ET Phone Home

Hi!
Due to work-related matters, I will not be able to get out and work
the 1943 UTC SO-50 pass as K7UGA that I planned to do. I apologize
if you were hoping to hear K7UGA on that pass. At this point, there
are no changes to my evening plans for K7UGA on the VO-52 passes and
an SO-50 pass at 0
Hi Graham,
I agree with you.
Object A and B is far away. We can see two clusters and ALMASat. One cubesat
is missing - but I believe they are still too close to identify.
Or two cubesats stuck together ;-)
But it's too early for such kind of speculation. Let's wait a week or two

Hi,
MASAT client working nicely, have captured a few frames this afternoon, but
more by accident than judgement.
The ARISSAT software was fairly tolerant of an off tune signal.
How close do we need to hold the waterfall display to the frequency markers?
If the MASAT team are watching the bb
I have noted that the cubes have a LO elliptical orbit.
When reporting a signal, would it not be
advisable to report altitude of the cube?
I have very high passed over Johannesburg.
1300-1430 km's
Can't wait to work the generic of AO16.

It's my understanding that the MaSat-1 software is supposed to forward
the info to them, and when you start the program for the first time it asks
for registration info. What I noticed is when the program is open and
running it says "offline" in the lower left corner, so maybe their server
isn't
Hi Andreas,
I have also setup my station for unattended receive of Masat-1. I've gone
with 2012-006G which closely matched my observed doppler shift this morning.
I notice that the Budapest University website for Masat-1 has a map of all
registered amateurs, including an indication of how many
Hi Mark,
Masat-1 is certainly not 2012-006A or 2012-006B. They are too far forward or
behind this mornings observed path. Also 2012-006C is 14s ahead of my
measurement.
My vote goes to 2012-0006G for Masat-1 (although there is only 8s between D,
E, F, G, H & J at the moment).
Time will tell o
Hi Andy,
Thanks for these..I am intrigued..there should be 10 objects in total -
LARES is in a circular 1450km orbit and does not appear to be listed yet.
Object A I suspect is the final stage/launch adaptor.
cheers

long it is not 2012-006A and 2012-006B) I've switched my station into fully

I have used the ISIS internal decoding software.
I'm not sure if the polish team provides a client to collect and
submit telemetry.
We can understand parts of their ASCII telemetry by reading the values
and converting them using various product manuals.

I think they are here! They match closely with the pre-launch...

Scanning for the new cubesats on a 5 deg. pass, I heard early in the
pass a signal on 437.351 at 13:37UTC today. Since it sounded like GFSK
and the frequency was right, I assume this was MASat-1. I also heard a
CW signal on the 70cm band, but it didn't seem to be A1A, and none of

I was looking this morning as well, but couldn't find them.
Analyzing the doppler shift indicated the pass was 50s later than the
pre-launch TLE's indicated (for the 8:30 UTC pass over the UK)
I updated the pre-launch TLE (by adding 50s to the Epoch time, and
re-calculating the checksum) and the
No names yet, but looking it at I would say 2012-006A is LARES and B is ALMASAT.
C-J are the cubesats IMHO. Take your pick.

Whoops! Lesson learned, do NOT copy / paste images into Google Blogger or the
images will point to the temporary files on your file system.
I thought it was uploading them! Anyhow, you should be able to see the images

Anybody find the TLEs yet??
Using the pre-launch set this morning wasn't really great. It's amazing what
24 hours will do :)
For example, this moring I could hear Masat-1 and XATCOBEO "below the horizon"
according to the pre-launch set. So it's appearing later than predicited using
this set.
Joseph,
Great project. When I went there with Firefox, no graphics, and with IE,
only placeholders. Tried in safe mode with both programs, but no help.
