Felix-Sorry for the loss of your, and your team's, work. Thank you, and please thank your team, for all their work.Good luck on your next flight. I know all the FM satellite lovers (like me) are anxiously awaiting the launch!-David, N9KTOn Thu, Sep 2, 2021 at 10:37 PM Felix Paez EA4GQS <ea4gqs@gmail.com> wrote:Dear friends,Unfortunately, the GENESIS satellites were destroyed along with the Firefly Alpha vehicle as it suffered an anomaly when it was travelling at Mach 1 speed about two minutes after the launch. It was Firefly's first flight and it was the second attempt after the first had been aborted an hour earlier a few seconds before takeoff.We are very proud of all the team work and very grateful for this opportunity Firefly has granted to us.In January we will launch with SpaceX through Alba Orbital, our FM repeaters Hades and EASAT-2. We will keep you posted,Thanks all and regards,Felix EA4GQS - AMSAT EAEl mié, 1 sept 2021 a las 20:28, Felix Paez EA4GQS (<ea4gqs@gmail.com>) escribió:Dear friends,After a year waiting, finally this Friday 3 at 01:00 UTC our digital GENESIS satellites will be launched from Vanderberg AFB aboard Firefly's Alpha rocket in its maiden flight. These satellites are ASK (OOK) and CW repeaters. They transmit a lot of telemetry and also 19 different CW greeting messages in english and spanish.We would like to ask you all to please try to receive them as any information about their transmisions would be very valuable for us. These are the first satellites we build by ourselves and we need to learn everything we can of them. Waterfalls, audio USB receptions or IQ files would be very appreciated. Please send them to genesis@amsat-ea.org or to ea4gqs@amsat-ea.org. We will send you a nice QSL.Initial keplerians are listed below. We expect to provide accurate ones a pair of days after the launch.
