Dear friends, As you all might be aware that two cubesats 'Jugnu' and 'SRMSat' using amateur frequencies are to be launched by PSLV C-18 from Satish Dhawan Space Centre [SDSC], Shriharikota, India. The expected launch time is 05:30 UT.
In this regard, I'm herewith forwarding the mail from Mr. Shantanu Agarwal, Team Lead for the 'Jugnu', requesting the Global Amateur Radio fraternity to provide the CW Beacon signal Report along with the plain decoded morse message, if possible.
Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated, as this would be very helpful to evaluate various ob-board system performance.
'Jugnu' beacon is at 437.275 MHz, OOK.
The reports can be sent to the following mail ID.s [email protected] [email protected]
The predicted TLE's:
JNU 1 99999U 11072A 11285.24724444 .00001785 00000-0 96625-3 0 1235 2 99999 20.0506 66.7109 0018405 5.1080 190.7439 14.11338922 19 SRM 1 88888U 11072A 11278.34967500 .00001077 00000-0 60876-3 0 1233 2 88888 20.0603 97.4017 0010015 338.6461 208.4324 14.09199968 14
