CR8ABA in the Azores successfully commanded the payload to be dropped when
the balloon was at 46.947N 26.787W.

That MaSAT photo is really outstanding. I wonder if they would share others?

I'm also curious how ALMAsat is doing?

Thanks for the update relay!

Andy,

I obtained the launch notification and posted it last week. Here are
the details we know so far:

http://www.northkoreatech.org/2012/03/20/itu-confirms-dprk-satellite-launch-pl
ans/
http://www.northkoreatech.org/2012/03/21/exclusive-north-koreas-expected-rocke
t-trajectory/

Today the state news agency added a little more information:

http://www.northkoreatech.org/2012/03/28/more-on-north-koreas-satellite-missio
n/

But that might be all we get.

In 2009 a "satellite launch" never produced a satellite and there is
considerable skepticism from the international community that this is
anything more than a long-range missile test.

In 2009 the North Koreans stated "It is sending to the earth the
melodies of the immortal revolutionary paeans "Song of General Kim Il
Sung" and "Song of General Kim Jong Il" and measured information at
470 MHz" and didn't get any more technical than that. Like the
satellite, the songs were never detected.

I don't have any idea on weather satellite formats, but it could be an
all-North Korean one. Russia has not traditionally helped the country
with its technical development in recent years. If help came from
anywhere it is likely to have come from China.

Hope that helps,

Martyn

Most bets are on a satellite never appearing on radar, but that won't stop
the DPRK news agencies from announcing a successful launch.

Unless the rocket explodes in view of foreign TV cameras, which have
apparently been invited, they won't admit failure.

We need an Australian Amateur Astronomer and HAM operator in Canberra on 4-6
June 2012.

We have a science team of students from the USA to observe the last transit
of Venus this century in Canberra.  We want a local Australian Ham to be
there to see if we can  use ham radio and the speed of light to share
observations with our sister team in Japan (and any other obsrevation sites).

Interested individuals for this historic event, contact WB4APR@xxxxx.xxx

Launch Thurs PM maybe... Tune up those 10m beams.

If we are lucky, we hope to launch our 6 party-balloon long duration payload
Thursday evening around sunset EST.    It has no APRS, just a 10m CW
telemetry system.  We will have to locate it by signal strength and beam
headings only.

If you have APRS you can uplink your beam heading via APRS so we can see the
DF solution maybe...

More tomorrow (again, if we are lucky).  It will only be at 15,000 feet or
so, vulnerable to weather and not so great winds...

The battery could last 10 days....

I was really impressed with the pictures they got considering the size of
the camera. (they can only do Southern Hemisphere at present)

Here's a 1200 BPSK recording of AO-16 on Howard's G6LVB site:

Not sure where to get 9600 BPSK!
