Hi Nitin, VU3TYG
I can't understand if AMSAT-India or ISRO is able and equipped and entitled to command VO-52
Since both transponders ,the AMSAT-India and Duch transponders on board of VO-52 have not channel telemetry it is impossible to know the battery conditions because the beacons of AMSAT-India transponder is only a steady carrier and the Duch transponder I remember has been used for only few days at the beginning and the beacon was transmitting only the same voice message from William Leijenaar PE1RAH.
Now who take care to monitor the battery and transponder conditions of VO-52 without to have a channel telemetry ?
Who is entitled and able to send a command to VO-52 and switch from the AMSAT transponder to the Dutch transponder ? AMSAT-India or ISRO ?
Have AMSAT-India or ISRO already tried to switch from the AMSAT transponder to the Duch transponder ?
Have AMSAT-India a VO-52 command station or not ?
Please let us know.

Hi Nithin,
Is there a way that you, ISRO or Amsat India can keep us (Ham Radio community) informed about the status of VO-52.

Maybe it is possible to gives us an update lets say every week? More frequent is also welcome ;-)

Hi Jan, PE0SAT
I agree with you because I am interested to know if the Indian transponder has been switched or not with the Dutch transponder and what the result was.
The silence around VO-52 make me concerned because after AO-51 died probably VO-52 in my opinion has been used to much in FM all over the world determining a deterioration of the batteries.
We need VO-52 because OSCAR-7 is strongly FMing and the rest of satellites except FO-29 are in very bad conditions.
I would like to receive an official report about the VO-52 situation from ISRO through AMSAT-India very often, I agree with you every week or less.
I remember that when AO40 was in truble we got a dayly report on AMSAT-BB every day from Stacey Mills,W4SM because he was the main command station of the bird and this make a great difference.
I can't understand why the command station for VO-52 must be ISRO using not amateur frequencies enstead of AMSAT India using the amateur bands.

As much as I appreciate the concerns, I rather have the team working on getting the satellite up and running again.

Hello All, Looking at the discussions and the concerns expressed about VO-52,all that I can share at this moment is 'HAMSAT VO-52' is in 'Excellent Health' after recovery operations. Right now, it is under observation. However, decision about switching 'ON' the transponder is pending clearance. Decision expected in other couple of days. The user community will be informed well in advance about the transponder switching.
Note:
'HAMSAT VO-52' is the property owned, operated and maintained by the Government of India/ISRO. Hence, unlike other amateur radio satellites owned, operated and maintained by non-governmental agencies, detailed information cannot be shared with anyone in accordance with the prevailing governmental regulations.
Hope this bit of information would remove the doubts and concerns about the HAMSAT VO-52 status and this is shared with you all with the concurrence of 'HAMSAT VO-52' Operations Director, Mr. T. Parimalarangan.

Hi Nithin,
Is there a way that you, ISRO or Amsat India can keep us (Ham Radio community) informed about the status of VO-52.
The silence around VO-52 gives me a bad feeling.
Maybe it is possible to gives us an update lets say every week? More frequent is also welcome ;-)

Hi Jan, PE0SAT
I agree with you because I am interested to know if the Indian transponder has been switched or not with the Dutch transponder and what the result was.
The silence around VO-52 make me concerned because after AO-51 died probably VO-52 in my opinion has been used to much in FM all over the world determining a deterioration of the batteries.
We need VO-52 because OSCAR-7 is strongly FMing and the rest of satellites except FO-29 are in very bad conditions.
I would like to receive an official report about the VO-52 situation from ISRO through AMSAT-India very often, I agree with you every week or less.
I remember that when AO40 was in truble we got a dayly report on AMSAT-BB every day from Stacey Mills,W4SM because he was the main command station of the bird and this make a great difference.
I can't understand why the command station for VO-52 must be ISRO using not amateur frequencies enstead of AMSAT India using the amateur bands.

Hello All, Looking at the discussions and the concerns expressed about VO-52,all that I can share at this moment is 'HAMSAT VO-52' is in 'Excellent Health' after recovery operations. Right now, it is under observation. However, decision about switching 'ON' the transponder is pending clearance. Decision expected in other couple of days. The user community will be informed well in advance about the transponder switching.
Note:
'HAMSAT VO-52' is the property owned, operated and maintained by the Government of India/ISRO. Hence, unlike other amateur radio satellites owned, operated and maintained by non-governmental agencies, detailed information cannot be shared with anyone in accordance with the prevailing governmental regulations.
Hope this bit of information would remove the doubts and concerns about the HAMSAT VO-52 status and this is shared with you all with the concurrence of 'HAMSAT VO-52' Operations Director, Mr. T. Parimalarangan.

I think all of this discussion should be taken by ISRO and AMSAT-India as an indication of how much we have appreciated using VO-52 in the past years and therefore how its loss, for however short a time, has been unsettling. I was just about to test a new rotatable antenna against the familiar VO-52 beacon when the news came. When it returns, I will be doubly thankful for this global resource provided by the hams and government of India.

Hi Domenico
Now who take care to monitor the battery and transponder conditions of VO-52 without to have a channel telemetry ?
I found the following on the website http://www.indianhams.com/
Communication for the satellite is on VHF (137MHz for TM and 149MHz for TC)
Maybe we can listen to the frequency on 137 when the exact frequency is known?
