Dear All,

Following my mail below I wish to encourage all to win an Award (the first ever issue by MARS internationally) so that a maximum of info collected about MIR-SAT1 available. Your participation and help collecting TLM is really useful and important for us.

As we are testing the TX right now it has been put on full power (temporally for a few days) and very strong thus enabling even the smallest Ground stations to receive its signal as easy to capture.

As mentioned by Chris (AC2CZ) the dashboard is taking shape (thanks to Satnogs) and you may check if your uploads successful (URL: https://dashboard.satnogs.org/d/TaZh29gnz/mir-sat1?orgId=1&refresh=30s

Already 5 OM’s are eligible for the Platinum Award, so only five left. I hope you will be the next one (read well mail below). Good Luck.

Jean Marc
