Hi John and the -BB,
Thanks for all the telemetry frames! If you have received any
frames of images, they will appear in FoxTelem, under that tab.
Look there. They fill in line by line as parts of various blocks
are downloaded. Also, I'll point users to a new Foxtelem release
from yesterday...it helps with seeing the progress of blocks being
downloaded to assemble the image, etc. Chris G0KLA is on top of
things and does an amazing job. There is a new development version
that is worth getting if you're collecting MESAT1 telemetry.
Scroll down under development section and grab 1.12z5.

MESAT1 is back in safe mode for the next 3 days or so, as we
monitor power budget, impact on the instruments related to the
camera, etc. We are learning a lot about the in orbit bird, but
it's slow. Then we'll request the image again, and likely attempt
to take another. It takes time, so we're being patient.
The images have to be commanded for download, and we'll try to
let you know when it's happening...but if you run automated, like
you apparently are doing, it's likely you'll get image
frames--thanks to your awesome footprint and number of orbits,
your telemetry has really been helpful. Thanks to you, and all
the telemetry gatherers out there. Every frame helps.
We are working very hard to help U of Maine with their science
mission, which is primary. And, we all should recall that it's
their satellite! Once that mission is sufficiently concluded, we
can look forward to a new bird with a nice V/u linear transponder
to use :)
