Hello everyone,
The first Brazilian cubesat, NanosatC-BR1, is experiencing battery issues for the last several months and it now seldom emits a beacon in CW. For some time, Paulo PV8DX, was able to detect a beacon signal when the satellite was over the Caribbean sea during daylight. But now, no more signals have been detected.
We would like to request assistance from hams in the northern hemisphere to see if NanosatC-BR1 is still transmitting any signals.
Any help will be much appreciated.

Just for info ... For those who may answer Edson's request, NanosatC-BR1 KEP TLEs are currently in the AMSAT KEP distribution as "NANOSATCBR1".
