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.

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 now.

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 doppler correction on the following
pass was much better.
I guess the orbit may be slightly higher than predicted, resulting in a
fractionally longer orbital period.
73s, Simon. G7WIQ

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
the current crop seem to use a different CW keying scheme on 70cm.
then I found a CW signal and manually tuned it for most of the rest of
the pass, until I realized it was XI-V! Argh!
73, Bruce

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

Hi Mark,
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.
According to me, I had the very first packet received (a couple of
minutes before the pass over Poland)

So now with the NORAD TLEs out (doesn't really matter which one you choose,
as long it is not 2012-006A and 2012-006B) I've switched my station into
fully automatic
MaSAT-1 tracking, doppler-correction, receive and decode mode. 4 hours left
until first pass .. I 'll be sound asleep then. We'll see how it goes :)

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

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 once the group spreads out a bit.

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 packets received by
each person.
http://cubesat.bme.hu/en/foldi-allomas/radioamatoroknek/
Do you know how they correlate received data with which amateur received it
? Everyone shows 0 packets at the moment.
73s, Simon G7WIQ

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 operational.

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.

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 then congratulations.
?
