Hello Ken, all,
Yes, I received AAUSAT-4 around 0545 UTC, orbit number 5 on 437.425 MHz +- 10 kHz Doppler shift (not decoded for the moment), strong signal. There was a CW signal at a moment but as I was in NBFM mode and the time needed to switch to CW or SSB the signal was gone, I just see it on the spectrogram. On the next pass, orbit number 6 around 0720 UTC no CW was heard here, only short digital transmissions.
Unfortunately, absolutly no signal received from the E-st@r-II bird (437.485 MHz)... and I did not try OUFTI-1 as I was busy on 70 cm band.
73+++

According to ESA, Sentinel-1B lifted off on a Soyuz rocket, flight VS14, from Europe’s Spaceport in Korou, French Guiana on 25 April 2016 at 21:02 GMT (23:02 CEST).
The three CubeSats, each measuring just 0×10×11 cm, piggybacked a ride on Soyuz are: OUFTI-1 from the University of Liege, Belgium, _e-st@r-II_ (mailto:e-st@r-II) from the Polytechnic of Turin, Italy, and AAUSat-4 from Aalborg University, Denmark. The other passenger is the Microscope satellite from France’s CNES space agency.
