The satellite frequency coordination committee of the International Amateur
Radio Union (IARU) on November 20 updated information regarding the
approved frequency requests from the National Formosa University for
satellite PARUS-T1A. The satellite is tentatively scheduled for launch in
January.
PARUS-T1A, a 3U CubeSat, is designed to continue the successful legacy of
the PARUS- T1 mission. This satellite will provide essential services to
the global amateur radio community.
The Primary Mission is an FM Voice Cross-Band Repeater to facilitate
real-time voice communication between amateur radio operators on 145.980
MHz (Uplink tone 67Hz) and 435.250 MHz (Downlink).
The satellite will also carry an APRS Digipeater to enable the transmission
of real-time position and status information from APRS-equipped devices on
145.825 MHz.
A telemetry beacon downlink on 437.850 MHz has also been coordinated, with
unencrypted telemetry packets accessible to the public through online
dashboards like SatNOGS, promoting transparency and community collaboration.

km 98 degree orbit.
