All,

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the information.

I got some news from Alex, RW3DZ:

RS-28 = UGATUSAT (Ufa) - failed due to malfunction of electronics

RS-29 = STERKH - ID was reserved for this satellite but they used their own TRX rig and this number was omitted so far

RS-30 = Yubileyny-1

RS-31 to RS-37 were used for ORBCOMM satellites under contract from OHB-systems

RS-38 = Tatyana-2 is working perfect and operate well under Kaluga control

RS-39 = Chibis - is under construction since 2006 and may be in orbit in 2011

RS-40 = Yubileyny-2 - will be in orbit this year

next new RS satellites also in progress
