Tried working thru the transponder and it was sounding good, Power was ~5
watts on sideband. Congratulations Williams on your transponder being
operational from VO-52. A recording of my CQ calls (recorded on downlink)
?is available at ?http://vu3tyg.addr.com/Telemetry/VO-52/VO-52-2.wav

Hi Jerry,
You need to listen on USB to decode DO-64
Goodluck

Hi Jerry,
Yes, you need a sideband radio. Try 145868 KHz in USB mode .

I continue to try to capture telemetry from DO 64 but as yet have not been
successful . Using Rascal software and 2M FM . Get good reception and the "
sync " light flashes on and off , but I have never recieved a packet . Do I
need sideband radio ? Can't figure why I don't recieve packets .

Congratulations,
Thanks to everyone for their cooperation in the activation of VO-52 Dutch
transponder.
My first opportunity to listen was at 15:55 UTC. The recording can be
found via: http://www.pe0sat.vgnet.nl/2012/vo-52-dutch-transponder-active/
Signals where 5-5 to 5-7

N3YKF and K8YSE will have an AMSAT table
at the Stuart Florida Hamfest on 3/17. Now
that we have VO-52 back we will have more
opportunities to demo satellites. Norm will
be operating his portable station and I will
likely have my Remote Station operating via a
3G Hotspot. Weather predictions are good so
we should have a good turnout. Please give us
a call if you hear us on the birds!

Message-ID: <003201cd0210$9f9e5ae0$0401a8c0@xxxxxx>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="Windows-1252"
Hi All,
The VO-52 Dutch transponder was working very well on the ascending
orbit Nr 37097 with max elevation of about 30? from my JN70ES
Recorded the whole orbit on magnetic tape with recorder REVOX-A77
Worked only IW6OVD and IZ8JHD and made a long chat with those
Ham friends.
My uplink power was 30 watt on a 10 turns Helix antenna RHCP
No other SSB stations were available on the passband because
probably they were not informed about the recovery of VO-52
At the end of the orbit at 2? elevation only two stations were active
from Russia.
The transponder modulation is OK and very linear even if a
comparative report with the Indian transponder can be available
only in the next few days.
Signal strength: CW Beacon is very clear without chirps and signals
linearity on the passband seems to be comparable with that of the
Indian Transponder
The best polarization in 2 meters downlink is LHCP as with
experienced with the Indian Transponder.(same antennas)
The lession learned (in my opinion) from AMSAT-India and ISRO is
the following one:
"If you want a satellite to communicate it should be simple
and have only one mode of operation and redundant trasponders".
Critical report: ISRO and AMSAT-India should have more than
only one control station.
Congratulations to ISRO, to AMSAT-India and to William PE1RAH
