Hello All,
A couple of reports of the latest cubesats. Yesterday morning's pass (2008/05/16/00:05 UTC) netted CUTE1.7+APD II - heard, recorded, decoded and sent telemetry COMPASS-1 - heard three times during CUTE pass, must be on 3 min timer DO-64 (Delfi) - not heard on either beacon frequency
Today's morning pass (2008/05/16/22:52 UTC) netted CUTE1.7+APDII - heard COMPASS-1 - heard SEEDS - heard in CW mode, recorded and telemetry will be sent DO-64 - still not heard.
So in around 20 attempts, I have only heard DO-64 twice and able to decode packets once. It's still turning off before it gets to the southern hemisphere.
