[AMSAT-BB] Re: UVSQ-SAT FM repeater ON September 12 : from 12h UTC to 23H UTC

Thank you Christophe. I see from the web site that users do not need a CTCSS tone to access the transponder. How is it accessed?   Does it operate with a squelch system + timer?Presumably a continuous transmission would discharge the battery fairly rapidly. 73 David  G0MRF -----Original Message----- From: christophe.mcr <christophe.mcr(a)gmail.com> To: Amsat-BB <amsat-bb(a)amsat.org> Sent: Fri, 10 Sep 2021 9:28 Subject: [AMSAT-BB] UVSQ-SAT FM repeater ON September 12 : from 12h UTC to 23H UTC Dear  The LATMOS team has programmed the UVSQ-SAT satellite to go into transponder mode on Sunday, September 12, 2021 starting at 12:00 UTC.
