Hi All... Looking at the data so far shown on this site.....the data for USUN shows red when placed in the telemetry decoder. From reading earlier I think this means its out of range. Its only showing 2.8v..... Am I right ? john

RS-39 Chibis heard
by Nitin Muttin 25 Jan '12

All, Heard the RS-39 CW telemetry during the 4:14 UTC pass over India. Recording can be found at http://www.vu3tyg.addr.com/RS-39/ . The signals were strong and I was following the keps of the Progress M13 M cargo ship. The RS -39 CW signals were heard 2 minutes after Progress M13 in range. 73 Nitin [VU3TYG]

RS-39 Chibis Heard
by Mani VU2WMY 25 Jan '12

25 Jan '12

Heard again RS-39 Chibis over Bangalore,India during 05:49 pass. The CW signals were very very strong. Never heard any satellite this strong with a 3X5/8 collinear running about 150 feet of HCJ-50 heliax. Though not equipped at the moment to decode, recorded the entire pass. As Nitin VU3TYG mentioned, using the latest Keps of Progress M13.

Increasing Icom 910H deviation on 9600 setting?
by James Cutler 25 Jan '12

25 Jan '12

Dear AMSAT, Has anyone successfully increased the maximum FM deviation of the 910H when using the 9600 setting on the radio? We have not been able to. We have two units, and one is maxed at 2.5 KHz and the other at 3.2 KHz deviation. We've used the service manual to adjust the deviation to max higher values (>7KHz). But, this doesn't affect the 9600 input path. Looking through the service manual, on page 10-1 lower left corner, it shows that the gain control we just set doesn't affect the 9600 path. So, I'm thinking of modifying the over modulation detection circuitry to allow for a larger peak to peak voltage signal to be input. The components that see that voltage appear to be able to handle it. Has anyone tried this, or know of another way to increase the deviation? 73, --James

Heard Chibis-M CW telemetry

Heard Chibis-M CW telemetry on 435.315 during 04:43 UT pass over India. The signals were really very strong even at 2.3 degrees max elevation. Eagerly awaiting to hear Chibis-M (RS-39) again at 05:49 UT pass over India with a max ele of 57.8 deg. 73 de Mani, VU2WMY Secretary & Station-In-Charge Upagrah Amateur Radio Club VU2URC ISRO Satellite Centre HAL Airport Road, Bangalore-560 017.
