Hallo Peter DB2OS

Chris Jackson, ZL2TPO, was the originator of the PacSat protocol. He studied at the Uni in Guildford and had a G0... call sign, you remember ? Eventually he can help you.

This picture has 300x300 dpi and 24bit colors.

DG2SBL I haven't found any information about the webmaster at AMSAT-UK, I suggest you contact Jim Heck G3WGM[at]amsat.org.

Hello Sat-hunters

I think I found the CW beacon of TRSI or TRSI-Sat about 3 kHz higher than coordinated on about 437.078 MHz.

The CubeSat was launched at 6th December from Mahia Island, New Zealand.

Info: http://www.amsatuk.me.uk/iaru/…_detail.php?serialnum=649

TLE:

TRSI
1 44830U 19084G 20018.71142344 .00021703 00000-0 19954-3 0 9992
2 44830 96.9984 247.6176 0040872 91.3228 269.2716 15.66576573 6779

Can anybody confirm my observation ?

You say put the first one in SatPC32, where?

http://www.amsat.org/amsat/ftp/keps/current/nasabare.txt

Erich DK1TB has a nice homepage for his SatPC32, see http://www.dk1tb.de/ and the online manual at http://www.dk1tb.de/manual_e.htm

Sorry, I'm not a SatPC32 user, hope it helps anyway.

I don't know what you need, put the first one in SatPC32. If you need more actual keps or more satellites then look into the text files. WGET and CURL are programs to download files from internet. With CURL I download keps from http://www.space-track.org

This are all URL's I collect keps with WGET and CURL.

Try "mode com6 dtr=on rts=on"

This is all I can help with, I'm not a SatPC32 user. But the soft has a feature to turn on RTS I had read on the AMSAT-BB. On http://www.dk1tb.de/manual_e.htm:

ee. With CAT interfaces that don't require an external power supply check the option 'RTS +12V'.

Good luck, 73

What is saying "mode com6" on the command line (works not with Win10) ?

CAMSAT Says CAS-6 Activation for Amateur Use has been Delayed

Quote from dj0abr

Beim EInlöten des Steckers braucht man kräftig Hitze, vielleicht hat sich einer der Winzlinge dadurch gelöst.

Oder dicken Lötdraht wo schön fliesst.

Output of CN0417 (which is connected to LimeSDR): 27dBm

OK, this step was missing in your previous message. It's a nice setup with a 85cm TV-dish for the NB transponder but not enough power for the WB transponder. This is what I meant.

Quote from DF2HF

Right now I am using a Chinese amplifier (EP-AB003 WiFi booster) which is rated for 8W but actually gives me 3W (35dBm) and I'm not happy with the result.

This WiFi booster has an amplification of about 10dB. This is the reason why you are not happy with it. 35dBm are too much, about 100 mW are real.

I'm happy with it to use it via NB transponder. 73

This are the latest news:

CAS-6 was launched as a piggyback satellite on TIANQIN-1 on December
20, 2019 via a CZ-4B launch vehicle from Taiyuan Satellite Launch
Center. Still awaiting a satellite signal, thus the CAT ID has not
been positively identified as yet. More later.
