Re: [amsat-bb] VS-14 -Sentinel-1B and cubesat launch
Hello Jean, Thanks for the information - I did not get an opportunity to listen on the earlier pass for either of the satellites. However I have just monitored on a good high pass between 0933 - 0937 hrs GMT. I heard data bursts from AAUSAT -2 and they were very strong even with my simple "ELK" antenna and tracking set up. I was trying to also monitor _e-st@r11_ (mailto:e-st@r11) but did not hear anything either. May have missed of course with having to change back and forward to AAUSAT- 2. Also monitoring OUFTI-1 but again nothing heard but I cannot be sure, I was expecting the beacon to be on 145.980 Mhz. Hoping that the delays with the launch have not caused any problems for the teams. Trust all goes well and good luck with the decoding. Regards Ken GW1FKY
