So now with the NORAD TLEs out (doesn't really matter which one you choose, as long it is not 2012-006A and 2012-006B) I've switched my station into fully automatic MaSAT-1 tracking, doppler-correction, receive and decode mode. 4 hours left until first pass .. I 'll be sound asleep then. We'll see how it goes :)

Hi Andreas,
I have also setup my station for unattended receive of Masat-1. I've gone with 2012-006G which closely matched my observed doppler shift this morning. I notice that the Budapest University website for Masat-1 has a map of all registered amateurs, including an indication of how many packets received by each person. http://cubesat.bme.hu/en/foldi-allomas/radioamatoroknek/ Do you know how they correlate received data with which amateur received it ? Everyone shows 0 packets at the moment.
73s, Simon G7WIQ

It's my understanding that the MaSat-1 software is supposed to forward the info to them, and when you start the program for the first time it asks for registration info. What I noticed is when the program is open and running it says "offline" in the lower left corner, so maybe their server isn't operational.

Same here,
Also, their website shows 0 received packets for all registered amateurs on the map! So lets see if they get it to ET Phone Home

All,
I got an email from a team member in Budapest and apparently the automatic server side storage is online and functioning. He said use the latest version of the software. Apparently it works for folks over there. Unfortunately there are no details about how to configure it and what to do if it doesn't work :) But I bet its a problem with firewall configuration / closed ports. I will play around with opening up my firewall at home today after work and see if I can make it connect to their server.
Cheers, Andreas - VK4HHH
