On 2022-08-09 the Iranian remote sensing satellite Khayyam
is to be launched from Baykonur on a Soyuz 2.1B & Fregat,
along with 16 Russian cubesats.

One of those will be the 3U cubesat KAI 1, aka KNITU-KAI,
NILAKT DOSAAF LLC, ANO DPO "KIRO". Its callsign will be RS26S.
It carries a 145/435 MHz repeater, panoramic cameras and
a temperature meter based on a fiber Bragg grating.
Currently no further details are available.

Also it is not clear if any of the other cubesats will appear on
any amateur radio frequencies.
