PSAT2 is looking for stations in the low latitudes (below 35 deg) for better commanding. With the 28 degree orbit, our best command stations rarely see PSAT2. We need stations for PSAT2 VHF with a radio capable of 1 KHz steps or less on FM. We also need stations for the PSK31 and SSTV commanding. These need UHF reception able to make I/Q recordings. And for SSTV commanding, a station with HF 29 MHz uplink is desired.
So far, PY5LF in Brazil has been working very well. Bob, Wb4APR
