I started with EA4TX many years ago which was easy to setup with Orbitron for rotor control but needed a separate CAT for Radio control. The SAT from CNN is my primary controller now with all the great features. 73 Nitin [VU3TYG] On Tuesday, 2 January, 2024 at 12:50:06 am IST, Gary Schafer via AMSAT-BB <amsat-bb(a)amsat.org> wrote: Which antenna controller do you guys like best, the CNN Technologies SAT unit or the EA4TX.

Note that BeliefSat 0 is not a separate satellite, but rather a payload on the PSLV Orbital Experimental Module 3 (POEM 3), that remains attached to the PSLV upper stage. And this upper stage is object 58695 (2024-001B). 73, Nico PA0DLO On 01-01-2024 20:22, Nitin Muttin via AMSAT-BB wrote: > POEM-3 > 1 58695U 24001B 24001.72040209 .00001705 00000+0 00000+0 0 9992 > 2 58695 9.6645 97.5677 0007367 329.3489 115.8059 15.73872371 88 > > 73 > Nitin [VU3TYG] > > > On Tuesday, 2 January, 2024 at 12:21:30 am IST, graham shirville via > AMSAT-BB <amsat-bb(a)amsat.org> wrote: > > > …and the coordinated frequencies are shown here! > > https://iaru.amsat-uk.org/finished_detail.php?serialnum=942 > > 73 > > Graham G3VZV > > *From:*Will Beers via AMSAT-BB <amsat-bb(a)amsat.org> > *Sent:* Monday, January 1, 2024 6:38 PM > *To:* Jim Walls <jim(a)k6ccc.org> > *Cc:* Amsat-BB <amsat-bb(a)amsat.org> > *Subject:* [AMSAT-BB] Re: Ham sat launched last night? > > Looks like the answer is yes! > > Took some digging, but this article points to BeliefSat-0 as an > included payload: > > https://www.thehindu.com/sci-tech/science/isro-to-launch-xposat-and-10-othe… > > BeliefSat-0 looks to be this: > > https://github.com/NewLeapKjsieit/BeliefSat-0/tree/main , which > includes an FM repeater and APRS digipeater. > > -Will, KK7OBE > > On Mon, Jan 1, 2024 at 10:10 Jim Walls via AMSAT-BB > <amsat-bb(a)amsat.org> wrote: > > I was watching the Indian PSLV launch carrying the XPoSat > satellite last > night.
