Hi to the group. Rather than speculate on the status of FO-29, perhaps
someone with some Japanese/English ability could monitor the Japanese pages
of the JARL site,
http://www.jarl.or.jp/index.html
as the English pages are not in sync with the Japanese.
Specifically this page that may be FO-29 related as it has a FO-29 graphic
and is dated 23 Apr 07
http://www.jarl.or.jp/Japanese/2_Joho/2007_news-4.htm#0423
I have not been successful installing the Japanese language pack into IE7.
Even then, I don't know if a cut and paste into Babelfish
http://babelfish.altavista.com/ would give us anything understandable.

Greetings,
The following tool seems to do a decent job at
translation of the JARL FO-29 "news" page to English.
http://www.google.com/language_tools
My interpretation is the JARL FO-29 group wants any
captured telemetry from just before the failure to
help them figure out what is wrong. Also, they are
looking for any reception reports since it has gone
"off-the-air" to assist them in determining if the TX
power is just extremely low (remember Suitsat-1!) or
really off.
Please, if you have any verified information that will
help them recover FO-29 send it to them.
73, KG4QWC

Jeff and all others thinking about long-term station needs:
One can start by assessing what type of satelllite(s) you desire to
work (or receive).
Then look up the individual satellite project's home page to find
their operating parameters:
orbit type, min/max range, frequencies, power output and antennas.
Once you have the particulars for the satellites you wish to track,
then you need to calculate path-link performance in order to
determine your ground station antenna, receiver and transmitter
requirements. This last part is probably the biggest problem for
most prospective operators.
In the past I (and others) have written some programs to analyze
performance of certain satellites. Most recently I did one for
receiving the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, but this can be used (with
a few modifications) for making path-link calculations for any
satellite; here is the link to the Excel spreadsheet:
http://www.kl7uw.com/MROCalc.xls
It is not very fancy and has no macros, but it will provide one with
an idea of what they need on the ground for receiving. To modify
this program to suit another satellite you will need to turn off
"protection" by clicking "tools", "protection", and select "unprotect sheet".
In order for me (or others) to produce a program for predicting
satellite performance (path-link analysis), we will need to know
certain satellite parameters. I have not investigated to see if
enough of these have been established for P3E or Eagle, for one to
produce a specific program. A completely generic program can be
done, which then would place the issue of gathering these parameters
in the hands of the user.
But I guess that such a generic program would have some value even if
some items were "guess-itmates"!
Once you have determined a set of antenna gain, receiver noise
figure, and transmitter power requirements for your ground station,
then it becomes a process of designing a station to accomplish
them: right combos of radios, converters, preamps, cables, antennas,
and tracking.
I know that many wish a complete paper or article suggesting specific
equipment and configurations to accomplish this. But at this point I
suspect that too many things are still subject to change or still in
design, to "nail down".

Responding to my own query, because I always post too soon, you can cut and
paste the JARL URL's into the Babelfish link below and it will do a full web
page translation.
Bottom line they are still investigating, collecting information and but
want feed back on any signal heard. However, I hesitate to give the email
address for the feedback as it may not have been translated correctly.

That's not the way it works, Luc....
If it's off-topic, DON'T POST IT!!!!
This is NOT the place for you to post whatever you want, and for us to have to decide whether to read it or not.
Stay on topic, or stay off the BB. We are ALL sick to death of this nonsense!
