Hello to all!
On 7th May 2013 1556z pass ESTCube-1 was heard in EL92sd with a great signal.
I was running a FUNcube Dongle with SDR-Radio V2.0 and ELK antenna with a
homebrew preamplifier. The ESTCube-1 beacon has a great signal.
Congratulations to all involved with the project!!!
73!

All,
If you have not yet made your reservations for the AMSAT/TAPR Banquet,
please make them by Tuesday,
May 14th, 1800 EDT. Because of the requirement that the caterer have a
final count, no more
reservations will be accepted afterwards, either on the AMSAT Store or at
Dayton. This is a great
opportunity to mingle with your fellow techies, enjoy an excellent meal and
the beverage of your
choice, as well as hear a fascinating speaker!
Information on this and other AMSAT social activities at Dayton can be found
at:

Second e-mail to Northern Lights Software Associates netted an immediate
response from owner, Michael Owen, W9IP. The response included my
customer registration number (that I had misplaced) from over ten years
ago! Not many companies would do that.
He also apologized for the amount of time it had taken for the response
(completely unnecessary but thoughtful) and his hopes that I would
continue to use and enjoy the software.
Like many, I use SATPC32 as my "day to day" software, but find that Nova
allows me to visualize orbits and upcoming passes much better. very
important for a newcomer like myself.
Just wanted to brag on Mr. Owen, and the kind of vendors that the
satellite community seems to enjoy.

Hi again,
I must apologise and correct my report on ESTcube-1. ( No one made
any comment )
The date is correct ( 7th ) - but the day should be "Tuesday" - my
brain wasn't functioning . We had a
public holiday on Monday here in the UK making it a long weekend - it did
not register from my normal routine.
Sincere apologies - pleased to learn of the success of others in hearing
the satellite.

In addition to the ESTCube-1 radio-details page, a google maps page
for tracking the satellite can be found at:

Not sure how fresh the app's keps are ... I'll listen in a few hours
when it is in my neighborhood.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
The loss of 2300-2400 MHz in a number of counties is resulting in the
investigation of the use of 2400 MHz, see IARU Region 1 paper VIE13_C5_27
New Narrow?Band working frequencies in the 2300 ? 2450 MHz band
http://amsat-uk.org/2013/04/30/iaru-region-1-agrees-addition-2m-satellite-allo
cation/
As I understand it Japan has always been restricted to 2400-2450 MHz with an
EME allocation at 2424 MHz. The 432 and Above EME newsletter reports that
WiFi is making this unusable and that JARL is now looking at the use of 2400
MHz instead.
http://www.nitehawk.com/rasmit/em70cm.html
The newsletter says:
"As discussed in past NLs, our 13 cm allocations, no matter where we are
located, will be difficult to maintain and are subject to attack by
commercial interests. Mike (JH1KRC) writes that the JARL frequency board
would like to renew their band plan (the JARL plan for the legal frequency
allocation), and has requested public opinion on a frequency change.
Specifically it is the JA 13 cm EME band that is being considered for
relocation. It appears that the present JA 2424 EME band may be totally
covered in the near future by WiFi/wireless LAN services worldwide. Thus, JA
EMEers are considering having their EME 13 cm frequency allocation moved to
2400. They would like to hear from you on the interference present at your
location on the present (2424) band and the new (2400) proposed band. Are
these bands clean or jammed? Please send this and any other related
information to Mike email: jh1krc[at]syd.odn.ne.jp by the last week of May,
2013."

While using Satpc32 for doppler correction (IC-910H) often I have to "tweek"
the calibration using the CAT function. The amount of "tweeking" can vary
between satellites and orbits. At times I will simply turn off the auto
function and just go manual. Is there a method I can depend more on the
computer or am I just getting lazy?
