Hi All,
We are in the midst of a testing session with the University of Maine's first satellite, MESAT1. We have just (8/10/24 0108utc) sent a stored test image to ground stations. MESAT1 remains in HEALTH mode, so telemetry is on all the time for maybe the next 12-24 hours.
We can especially use telemetry frames to be collected tomorrow during the 1146utc and 1316utc morning passes. We are attempting to take and download its first photo. All telemetry from all around the globe is welcome and very helpful.
We will likely decrease the telemetry power for an orbit, but increase again to download the image. Grab what you can in FoxTelem, and upload to the server all of your frames!

Thanks for your help! It's been great thus far.
