Hello folks, I am a little new at this so please have patience with ignorance. Jin and I launched two CubeSats a week or so ago. The first is Trailblazer (mine) and the second is DragonSat (Jins). Trailblazer is from the Configurable Space Research at the University of New Mexico (KE5VSH) and DragonSat is Drexel University. Our problem is that we havent heard from our satellites yet. There could be a variety of different reasons. First, the satellite didnt survive delivery. Second, our antennas didnt deploy or third, we have poor ground stations. As you can imagine, I am hoping for the third. I can pasting the TLE which is openly available on space-track and celestetrack in this email. It is very close (I believe) to our birds. If you have a chance, could you please keep your ears open in case you might hear us. Please email any packets for Trailblazer to myself here at craig.k...@cosmiac.org and for DragonSat to Jin Kang at k...@usna.edu. Thanks again most sincerely, Craig Trailblazer 437.425MHz, AX.25, 9,600 (there is another satellite with the same tx freq as mine there as well). On my packets, if you see C0 00 A8 84 . You will provide me with a wonderful gift. I beacon every 50 seconds DragonSat 145.870MHz, AX.25, 9,600. Beacons every 30 seconds.
