Hi Les,

I have an FCD (not Pro) that I use pretty often for satellites and a TS2000
for the main rig  Given that the T and R bands are always different, and
given that the TS2000 has separate inputs for U and V bands, I use a coax
switch on each antenna (type N for UHF).  One output of each coax switch
goes to the matching antenna of the TS2000.  The other goes to a U/V
diplexer (again with N-type connectors).  Then this goes into the FCD.

Of course there is some loss, but I have RF-switched preamps out on the
antennas so that is less critical.

73,

Burns W2BFJ

Three CubeSats from Santa Clara University plan to launch this year on three
different launch vehicles.

One of them Lambdasat is apparently planning to use the Iridium sat phone
system which struck me as odd given that TechEdSat had to have it's Satphone
facility disabled due to regulatory issues. Anyone know how they got around
these issues ?

Details of the three CubeSats are on the IARU pages

http://www.amsat.org.uk/iaru/

Select Sats which have formally requested Frequency Coordination
then scroll to the bottom of the page.

Answer: go to www.heavens-above.com
put in your location, click on "Daily Predictions for Brighter Satellites".
Depending on how dark your sky is, dozens can be visible.  Always fun to see
and identify.

Howdy All,

I have no ideas as to where to possibly look for an answer to this.

But of course we have all seen satellites, crosing the night sky. and
seen them in binoculars. and even ever more rarely while using a
telescope viewing something in the sky happen to have one of these
things go zipping past.

But a buddy of mine was viewing Saturn the other night, and he spied
something moving. very small and faint. It was almost like a moon of
Saturn itself, but of course these do not move so fast you can see them
move.

This was moving in the same plane and directions of the moons. at a
estimated speed of about 0.02 degrees a minute.

It was passing right through the field with Saturn.


Saturn was located at.

celestial location

az  196 deg 16 min
el 34 deg 04min

Viewing location near Dodgeville, WI.

anyone have a way to try to learn what this interloper may have been?

Also, there is a back track function that will let you look back a few days.
Look for a link near the top that says "previous" I'll take you back a day.
Bear in mind you see the results using the current keps, so the further back
you go, the less accurate your results will be. It is useful for identifying
that sat you saw last night, though.

I just got my icom preamp back from repair. I somehow fried it using my
ts2000. I now plan to use it with my ft-847 which can send 12 vdc down the
coax to power a remote preamp. Can I assume this will work fine with the
icom preamp? I really don't want to fry it again and wish I had a different
brand.

JoAnne,

I'm sure we've all heard the phrase, "You're the Man!"---well clearly
that does not apply in your case, but for your extraordinary help in my
ventures to make contacts through the ISS, you're the woman!
Coming over from the weak signal side of the world above 50 MHz, it's
great to meet so many nice VHF Men (and VHF Women) so willing to share
their expertise with a newcomer.
Everyone on this list, and on the air has been wonderful.

I'll give all this a try tomorrow if I can ever get home from work at a
decent hour.

Last time there, I do not think you can have it display old stuff?

It was identified, (story to come) but it was also a major hmmmm, thing too.

Message-ID: <51B9CB3A.50905@xxx.xxx>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed

This was a very interesting journey.

To Summarize, A buddy of mine is a very active Amateur Astronomer. His
telescopes and other equipment would equal to  one of the best Amateur
Radio stations in the country.

Anyway while he was observing Saturn the other evening, he saw a object
pass nearby very slowly. Far too slowly compared to most Satellites we
have ever seen, and Far too fast to be an asteroid too. So it was an
interesting Mystery. He made a posting on a local club message system
about it, and that's when I came here to this list looking for help to
identify it.


Someone, (Sorry do not remember who) suggested I go to the
seesat-l@xxxxxx.xxx E-Mail list and ask. Very interesting group.

Of course there was at first no answer to it, but no fault to them, but
a fault of the original date of the observation, a typo had it on Jun 1
instead of when it really happened Jun11.

After the correct date was posted it was no time when an identification
was made. It was TERRESTAR-1.   It's a Geosynchronous communications
satellite.



Thats what somewhat fooled us, an Illusion. His scope of course has
drives to make it follow the objects in the sky. So In his scope Saturn
appears motionless.


And thats where we also got messed up,  the Geo bird is more or less
Stationary in the sky.  It has a pretty good amount of vertical drift
tho. it's orbital period makes it Geo Stationary. but it has a pretty
high inclination so it drifts up and down in declination some.  But
thats even slower motion.

What we saw as the object moving slowly, was not that but Saturn moving
past the Bird!  DUH?

Anyway Now for the other reason for this E Mail today...  In this
Mystery chase I learned a lot. And that seesat group helped out a lot
and sent me to a cool program that displays the birds, all of them.

Now this totally amazed me. And it makes me wonder even more, why we can
not get a ride to space.

Everyone is familiar seeing a image that shows an average daily air
traffic congestion say above the USA like this.

http://farm1.static.flickr.com/212/481648154_61472fbe50_o.jpg

But what amazed me is when using that Satellite viewing program is how
many Birds are actually up there! look at this hemisphere shot!
http://i44.tinypic.com/120o7kg.jpg

It's CRAZY!!

Then a more detailed view looking south right now13:30 zulu,

http://i39.tinypic.com/2m6ubrs.jpg


It's NUTS!


Now what I can't understand is why, out of literally THOUSANDS of
launches why we can't get a ride.

I can understand in like the 60's when launches were not very often. But
even then we were getting rides every couple years.

Now with litterally Thousands of birds getting launched by the looks of
stuff in this program, why in what decades? we havent been able to get a
ride to a HEO type of orit? or even a LEO transponder type of bird.

Like WOW!
