Hi Bill
funny you mention Myflydream
I am the Mylfydream service point for the Netherlands, I have discussed
this with the developer Ming about this.
I know the protocol that is used to control the AAT (black box).
The AAT is connected to the Driver (blue box) the blue box decodes
telemetry data from the plane. then sends a serial command to the AAT to
Pan and Tilt in the correction directions.
Inside the AAT there is a 6 or a 12ch slipring for endless rotation..
(too keep in mind!) and cannot be limited to a min and max position..
I already wrote a little software some years ago that converts GS-232B
protocol to MFD Protocol..
I have to digg up the project.
The thing why I did not continue this project is the endless rotation of
the AAT, If i command the AAT to 355 degrees it will choose the shortest
direction.
So eventually wires will get tangled. ;-)

Telemetry beacons still running okay. I did hear that the D-STAR repeater
might be tested during July but clearly the team will be ensuring correct
operation of the spacecraft and carrying out the primary mission objectives
first.

Yes, it carries the boards flown on FUNcube-1 so similar 435/ transponder,
just different frequencies.

Again, strong CW telemetry from UKube-1 during 1515Z pass.

Dear all,
we try once more to guide ISEE-3 back to planet Earth and fire the
thrusters for a trajectory bound for a moon swing by on August 10th.
Uplink commands will be sent by the Arecibo radio observatory and the
downlink is handled by the Bochum observatory and AMSAT-DL.
Check out our TLM live display:

@xxxxxxx and @xxxxxxxxxxx
wish us luck!

If anyone in Europe wants to submit a paper on APRS and other AX.25
satellite relay, this conference might be a good match. We like to think
of the 145.825 AMSATs as a continuum of remote-data access for student
experiments and remote data access?

IEEE Conference on Wireless for Space & Extreme Environments Seeks Papers
WASHINGTON (9 July 2014) -- Organizers of the International Conference on
Wireless for Space and Extreme Environments (WiSEE) are seeking papers and
posters that address solutions to the significant challenges of wireless
sensing and communication in space (and extreme environments).
http://sites.ieee.org/wisee/
The submission deadline is 1 August.
Areas of particular interest include but are not limited to:
* Low-power active wireless sensors, systems & networks
* Passive wireless sensors, systems & networks
* RFID devices & systems
* Protocols & architectures for delay & disruption-tolerant networking
* Network architectures, middleware integration & data management
* Cognitive radio networks
* Localization & tracking over wireless links
* Antenna design, smart antennas, beam forming & multiple-antenna techniques
* Propagation modelling for planetary surfaces & complex multipath
environments
* Wireless & cyber security
* Optical communication systems
* Availability, certification & spaceflight qualification for wireless
devices & systems
* Integrated vehicle systems
For more information and to submit a paper or poster, see
http://sites.ieee.org/wisee/call-for-papers/.
WiSEE 2014 will be held at the European Space Agency?s European Space and
Technology Research Centre in Noordwijk, the Netherlands, 30-31 October
2014.
The event will bring together investigators from international space
agencies, including ESA, the Canadian Space Agency and NASA, along with
aerospace and space defense industries and academic researchers, in an
effort to understand and solve emerging problems facing wireless sensing
and communication during spaceflight and in extreme environments such as
planetary surfaces, space vehicles and space habitats.
Background
The many challenges faced in space sensing and communication are extremely
diverse and overlap significantly with those found in extreme environments
on earth. These environments pose significant challenges for radio
frequency and optical wireless sensing and communication and will require
the application of a broad range of technologies to generate reliable and
cost-effective solutions. Although specific challenges vary significantly
from one environment to another, many of the solutions offered by sensing,
communication and statistical signal processing technologies can be applied
in multiple environments.
