Using http://amsat.org.ar/pass.htm & exe.
Today on EO-79 on Orbit 13147 at 15:46Z on a Buenos Aires pass, got excellent signal & SSB return from EO-79.
Frequency used was Doppler automatically corrected, getting good return from my signal.
For those using Satpc32 the Doppler.sqf line could be: EO-79,145967.6,435069.4.0,USB,LSB,REV,0,0,Transponder
For Pass application (don't need to set is already included) ["40025","EO-79","435069.4","145967.6","145815","LSB","USB","CW","REV","0","0","Linear Transponder",""],
EO-79 Pass & contact was after 25 minutes after sunlit, very strong return.
Wishing good contacts thru this nice bird.
Congrats and THANKS to Funcube-3 teams for this excellent linear transponder.

Hi Pedro,
Many thanks for your report and kind comments!
We are delighted that it is working so well especially as it has already been in space for more than two years.
best wishes
