| Six Amateur Radio Satellites Launched from India |
|
Reports are being posted on the AMSAT Bulletin Board for some of the 6 Amateur Radio satellites launched earlier this morning. The latest satellite to be heard is Delfi-C3 on 145.930 MHz. Here is a summary of the PSLV-C9 CubeSat payload:
Thanks to Mineo, JE9PEL for this table. Among the reports are: Congrats to ISRO We the members of Amsat India and the Indian Ham fraternity congratulate ISRO for the successful 10 pack satellite launch via the PSLV C9 this morning. We would also congratulate the DELFI team, CUTE team and the SEEDS team for their amateur radio satellites which are now placed in orbit. Looking forward to hearing the first telemetry in a few minutes which of course is a low westerly pass for us. VU3TYG and myself would try to monitor and record. Looking forward to a the new exciting sats. Best 73 Pop VU2POP Secy Amsat India ---- Congratulations for a successful launch Dear All, Just witnessed the very successful launch of Delfi-C3 and all other satellites launched from India via DD National live. My congratulations to all those involved in making this launch a success. Now awaiting the reception of the first signals some 9 hours from now. Will have to wait for tomorrow morning to copy the first signal from Delfi-C3 due to it being in eclipse during the first pass over West Malaysia. Good luck to all those in copying the downlink. 73, Sion Chow Q. C., 9W2QC. ---- SEEDS Telemetry and Audio Hi All, I captured audio and decoded some of SEEDS telemetry on the first pass over western US at 05:01 UTC. Report and audio. Congrats to all sats on a successful launch!! We'll be listening tomorrow, and hope to catch those that weren't heard on the first pass. Good luck, and 73 Matt KF6RTB ---- Cute-1.7 + APD II Launch Flash Report Dear All, I'm Hiroki Ashida at Tokyo Institute of Technology (JQ1YCZ). The Indian PSLV-C9 launch vehicle carrying 10 satellites including our satellite Cute-1.7 + APD II. PSLV-C9 was launched on schedule and successfully inject satellites into orbit. You can see further informations at Cute-1.7 + APD II Project Weblog We would appreciate if you receive the signal from "Cute-1.7 + APD II". If you received telemetries from our satellite, please kindly inform us. The first pass is available at the East Coast of USA. We are waiting for your kind reports. [UPDATED!] Predicted TLE of Cute-1.7: CUTE-1.7 + APD II Our satellite uses amature radio band. The specifications are as follows:

---- Hi all, Delfi-C3 was heard by Rick Mann, while she was over the US. From the wav file Rick sent us, we can deduce that she is tranmitting on the backup frequency (145.930) in science mode. This is very very good news, we are all extremely excited. We have not been able to decode the wav file yet since it is rather noisy, but the satellite is definitely there. Note that Delfi-C3 decides by herself on which freq the transmitter comes up, so be sure to check both 145.870MHz and 145.930MHz. Any wav files, or if possible even decoded TLM using RASCAL or a KISS file is highly appreciated! 73 on behalf of an excited Delfi-C3 team |
