Es’hailSat said that Es’hail-2, based on the DS-2000 platform, features “sophisticated anti-jamming capabilities” for its Ka-band payload. This technology enables them to locate the Jammer with very high precision...
Hi Peter,
I've a question for you. Are Amsat control team able after commissioning to switch on or off the transponders ?
Thanks for answer.
Alex
official NB transponder. we have an extra bonus
In fact seems that the usable bandpass is around 500-550 KHz ... 
Alles anzeigenGood news today. To compare signals, few days ago i actived the websdr connected to ES'Hail2 SAT from my station on Sardinia with 100cm parabolic dish
http://217.133.56.150:8901/
also in list on websdr.org

Amazing !
CW signal stopped at 1339UTC
We expect official announcement from the AMSAT_DL TEAM !
10489 H cw beacon
NB Transponder ON 10489V and CW Beacon
This is a wonderful news. This evening start to listen to the beacon.
Seems all right, hope in a long service and results from this satellite.
Tu Lucio.
On chart is very interesting, but yesterday night I have been tried to install in Windows 10. It't too much complex for windows environment, you need to do some steps, but it isn't a dummy proof installation ! Seems more easier using a linux distro, in fact theres more and punctual instruction for the installation. In windows it's very hard. Tryed to search treads with more simple instruction. Total failure.
If some one has more simple instruction are welcome !

This is test referred to EsHailsat-2.
Success. I tuned it on BADR-7 - 10.969000 IO receive this signal Audio is perfect image is not fluid at 100% but this is a step ahead. Thank you so much for your help DG0OPK ! YEs it isn't EsHailSat2 but help me to understand that Minitoiune run.
Ok, but what DVB-S signal do you want to receive? I know only one DVB-S signal on 11.270 from this orbit position, its from BADR 7 on the east MENA beam.
This is test referred to EsHailsat-2.
Hm? Which DVB-S beacon on 11.270? Which satellite do you want to receive from?
Robert
Es'Hailsat has beacon active during IOT, but may be are off. now.
Ok shoft test when AMSAT DVB-S2 will be active...
TU Regards.
I'm bit frustrated due some issues to receive test DVB- S beacon at 11.270, Cannot receive with Minitiotune, and I don't know why. Signals from EB are so strong.
I Don't think is a pointing issue, starting have suspect on Minitiotuner Express.
But seems software works fine, the circuitry and the software passes all test.
Suggestion ? Hints ?

situation on around 26 East. L to R: EsHail-2, Arabsat 4B, Badr 6, 7 and 5. Hard to find a slot for EsHail-2...
Interesting. I ignore that every satellite moves a bit from his position...
I got it and running well. Thank you for the helps.

Cool, You have done a good job. Today I have been started Minitiouner Sw, with MiniTiuoner Express, but I wasn't able to decode signal. In this version I cannot see pads to able the LNB power supply. >My version is a bit different compared with the pdf... But I tryed to use a bias tee, unforunately today I haven't a power supply of 16-18 v to obtain the right polatization (Horizontal). Okay I will try next days...
Bye ...Hope to see you on the bird.

Alles anzeigenGood morning all in south Sardinia (Cagliari), Es'Hail2 is very strong.
In monitor 11270H but at the moment seems to be offToday 17kHz of telemetry subcarrier is moved from 10706 to 11205; this happen in various moments of the day..Are working..
I'm using 100cm parabolic, PLL LNB (55dB gain), 20m sat cable and R820T2
Roberto IS0GRB
Yes Roberto I confirm your observation, the same for me, but signal in my case is lower due to lack of pointing :
Yes I think so. With that dish you should be able to get it much stronger.
However, pointing is now a bit of a waste of time as it is slowly drifting east.
Yes Rob you are right. But I taken the common fever to do some tests and checks...
But the challenge will be to transmit over the bird,
I'm looking forward to do my first qso.

Nice shot Lucio !
Very slow my first reception of EShailsat-2 (Oscar-G1) . I need some adjustment of pointing. (Dish 100 cm, Octagon Otlso dual feed modified oe7dbh, port 2, vertical polarization (+13,8 V))
