Hi, Nothing heard of UWE-4 in 435.600 Mhz over South America. Any news since the frecuency changed? 73 Gustavo,LW2DTZ
Hi Gustavo!
I believe that 9k6 telemetry has been reported several times since the frequency change. There are so many satellites clustered together right now that I don't monitor UWE-4 on every pass, so I can't give any first-hand report on its status today - I was tracking others in that group.
Personally, I keep hoping to catch the 9k6 packet digipeater active on UWE-4! I already have 5 memory channels programmed "WD9EWK-style" with the appropriate TX & RX frequencies which I'll manually step through during a pass. My TM-V71A calls these "odd-split" channels; I would imagine other radios allow for similar programming.
Hope to make some contacts via UWE-4's digipeater if/when it goes active!

Hi Gustavo!
I can confirm that - also nothing heard over Europe today (on both frequencies).
