TechEdSat appears to be quite sensitive to changes in the density
of the upper atmosphere. Small changes in solar activity have a
large influence on the expected decay date of this satellite.
The decay of TechEdSat is now likely to occur sometime in the
first 6 or 7 days of May.

This arrived via the ANS-Editor mailbox. Perhaps members on amsat-bb can be
of assistance to NPR in regards to the Phonesats.

Hi Gordon,
I?m a reporter with NPR who?s working on a little story about some
cell-phone satellites that were recently launched into space (Bud, one of
the engineers here, sent me your way). Apparently, they?re transmitting to
Ham radio operators around the world (see http://phonesat.org/).
I?m trying to track down some people who?ve detected the satellites and
received some data from them. Ideally, I?d like to talk to them on the
phone or even by shortwave radio, if that could be arranged.
There are callsigns on the phonesat.org website. Any idea how I?d find some
of these people? Or are members of the sterling park amateur radio club
involved?
Any help appreciated,
Geoff

Just one station and I think he is in automatic mode... aka no operator
behind the wheel... ;-)
I hope my packets make it into the digipiter and down...
Seems like the is not so much activity in APRS on the sats...
recently... even for a 'rare' grid like me... :-) FL11ai
I will be on SO-50 next week...

Hello Linear Satellite lovers!
do any of the die-hard satellite operators want to work Mode A on AO7?
If you want and un-congested satellite pass that will give you good
distance and plenty of time on the "Bird", then Mode A is the mode/bird
to try.
Almost any type of an antenna will work, I am personally using a 3
element HyGain 10m monobander for my receive, it is not perfect but it
will do the trick, I have managed a contact into the UK with Paul,
2E1EUB on AO7-a and I have also worked a few South American stations as
well, Cuba which as frequency restrictions on 432Mhz cannot use AO7-b
but they can work Mode A.
If anyone is up for a try, I am willing to make a schedule or two.

TURKSAT-3USAT should launch Friday 0413 UT, an article has been published by
the Turkish TAMSAT / AMSAT-TR group

NEE-01 Pegasus is a CubeSat on the same launch in operates on 910 MHz either
HD TV or a FM SSTV/CW/Voice beacon. The 1U CubeSat has an impressive
fold-out solar array

Hi All,
In the page 15 of the book ?KENWOOD Listen to the future ? TH-D72A/E?. It
is written:
Step 1: Built in Clock
APRS data will be stamped with date and time. Therefore, the built-in clock
must be set.
Since the time acquired via the GPS receiver is UTC, Time Zone must be
configured.
Can anybody tell me how the APRS data is stamped with date and time in the
TH-D72 APRS Packet? Is there a new APRS Mic-Encoder Format that?s include
time and date.
If not how can I add time and date of the position measurement in the APRS
packet? This is very important for me because I try to save the positions
of a mobile periodically, and send them when the satellite is in visibility.
The simple way is to use the field packet path. Since the communication is
via satellite and we don?t need relay or wide?
Have you any advise or elegant way to do this? I think it would be a good
thing if the APRS Mic-Encoder Format take care of the date and time of
position measurement.
