HUSKYSAT-1 pass over VK 0736utc 21st February
Husysat-1 just passed over VK with 16 degree elevation pass.
10 second bursts of telemetry at 2minute 15 second intervals.
Not sure what that means in terms of operation.
Power output recorded were 190 milliwatts, 310 milliwatts and 240 milliwatts.
4 bursts noted 9 packets decoded.
73 Colin VK5HI.
Colin,
Many thanks for the report and please keep providing telemetry. In the current phase of the mission the spacecraft only needs to down-link science telemetry when over the University of Washington, so it may sometimes be in safe mode for the rest of an orbit. But the health telemetry packets from safe mode are very important for monitoring the spacecraft, so please keep sending them in.
