Please note that the BRICSat Command team is requesting two things: (See email below.) 1. That amateurs try to receive the packet downlink of BRICsat. The command team needs more info about the sat and your reception reports. Please send data directly to Jin Kang kang@usna.edu 2. If you can, please do not try to make the transponder sense your PSK signal, in order to conserve the power. It should transmit telemetry as it is specified on their website. See website below:

Gentlemans, you have probably nailed that down. I have programmed my recorder for Ultrasat2 yesterday and on two passes I have positive reception of BRICSat. The ID for Bricsat I have taken from Jin Kang as principal operator of Bricsat and at that time it worked. But I havent received a beep from it for approx 14 days. So now it looks, like the Bricsat is transmitting... If you have beams for 70cm, try to receive the packet downlink of BRICsat as we need more info about the whole sat and receptions send please directly to Jin Kang kang@usna.edu. If you can, please do not try to make the transponder sense your PSK signal, to conserve the power. It should transmit telemetry as it is specified on our website. You can look at the S curve of my reception in the attachement for my loc JN89LE. Best regards and 73! de Tomas OK2PNQ
