So, I was wondering, can I get say a 1

Hi All,
I have received some news regarding FalconSat-3 and the amateur payload, I
have posted it on my website http://wordpress.projectoscar.co.uk/?p=720 and

Unfortunately go-32 is end of mission! Mike DK3WN I have been tracking this
for a while now and it's solar panels cannot produce enough juice to keep the
on board computer going hence why it enters emergency mode quite often :(
Shame as Bob did a good thing with Aprsing it!

Hi Joe,
The keps generally don't get released until the satellite is in orbit and has
been radar located by the ground satellite trackers :)

Hi Tony,
Technically the R/B isn't a satellite??
The R/B _is_ a satellite if it's in orbit around the Earth, and it's non

the satellite into its orbit. :)
Hmm, this I guess is true so maybe I need to ensure that I include
Hi Bruce,
No, the telemetry dump at the end is the end of its scheduled transmit time.

I have received the UK copy of Oscar news and there is an article stating

Hi Jim,
This is the Whole Orbit Data stream, it contains the battery status and
solar panel voltages for the orbit.
It can be decoded by using a TNC or via a software TNC...
