Elan,
RS38 is the satellite Universitetsky 2 alias Tatiana 2, that was launched on September 17 from Baikonur, together with Ugatusat. Initially it identified itself as 'RS28'. But reports from Moscow called it 'RS38'. Now the satellite also has started to identify as 'RS38'.
A couple of weeks after launch the kepler sets were mixed up. Initially RS38 was 35868, 2009-049D. But now RS38 is 35869, 2009-049E. (Probably Ugatusat is now 35868.)
RS38 can transmit CW and various digital modes on a number of frequencies between 435.260 and 435.490 MHz. The digital modes are probably only active when the satellite is within range of the command station in Russia. The CW telemetry recently showed up mostly on 435.490 MHz.
Happy new year.
73, Nico PA0DLO

I seem to have trouble finding data on this bird. Can someone point me to keps, etc. so I can load her into SatPC?
Thanks, Elan - WB2IOL
