Students from Teikyo University plan to transmit images of Slime Mold growth
from space using amateur radio.
Wiki lists their satellite TeikyoSat-3 as launching with several other
satellites carrying amateur radio payloads in June 2014.

I was going to try and roll my own version of the preamp circuit shown
in the AMSAT store. I wish I had a spare 50 bucks to just buy one
because I know it would go to help FOX but my money is extremely tight
right now. Unfortunately when I go to the mini circuits site, I find
that their minimum order is twenty and I'd be spending close to 25 or 30
bucks anyway. At that point, I would be better off buying the prebuilt
amp if I could afford it! I'm trying to get back ito sats on a budget. I
have a DVB-T stick and an omnidirectional scanner antenna that I'm
experimenting with as a poor mans RX solution. I've been able to
definitely hear transmissions but not make out anything legible from
V0-52 and I've had no luck hearing S0-50 at all. Considering that I have
about a 30 foot run of RG-6 quad shield from the antenna to the shack,
I imagine that a preamp at the antenna would help and give me a definite
yes or no if my RX experiment is even feasible. I am using SDR# right
now because I find it easier but my eventual plan is to try and use
HDSDR with the doppler being controlled by SatPC-32. I could go cheap
handhelds and may eventually when I can afford them but given that I
like to operate from my shack and not outdoors with handheld beams, I'll
still need the preamp.

My Sister took me to see that when I was 8, I couldn?t sleep without
cocooning myself under the covers for weeks, I rented it a few years back
and just laughed..

I watched my DVD copy of it a few days ago. It's one of the best
science fiction movies ever made.

Right after my last post, I put it on. Just finished watching.
Yes, it's a real classic.

It's certainly much better than the made-for-TV remake of a few years
ago. That version was absolutely dreadful.

All,
I decided to buckle down and make an open source Google Earth based
satellite tracker. See: https://code.google.com/p/ge-satellite-tracker/
It is designed to pull it's ephemerides directly from space-track.org, so
you will need an account to use it (for now). Eventually, I will get around
to implementing all the fancies I rendered for arissat-1.
The code is currently in its infancy, so I am open to questions, comments
and suggestions.

Hi Michael,
Check out Down East Microwave at www.downeastmicrowave.com. From
the main page scroll down and click on catalog/Price List on the left. On
the next page click on Our Online Catalog. On the left side of the page
click on Components. Scroll down a bit to the MMIC section. They are
selling MAR-6s for $2.20 a piece with no minimum. There are probably a few
other components you can use in your project as well on their site. Their
order process is a bit different than usual, but follow the instructions on
their online order form and you'll be fine.
Hope this helps,
-Zach, KJ4QLP
