Re: AMSAT-BB ARISSat Deactivation
I was monitoring the 437.550 downlink on all passes from April 11th until April 13th but nothing heard. -- Regards

Thanks for the info, the change to https: explains everything. I have just
discovered that I can manually download a compressed file from Space-Track, extract the text file, and manually update Nova from the text file. Looks like Celestrack could make that process a lot easier, so I will explore that next.
Nova hasn't been upgraded since 2008 ( and it had so many little bugs to
fix !! ) so I'm not going to sit around waiting to see if they put out a new version.
Thanks again, Richard K7MDH

AO51 still appeared to be down during the 1922z pass. I only monitored
half
of the pass, but I never heard a carrier.

Hello All,
We are receiving reports that AO-51 appears to be down. Hopefully one of us can get it going again this afternoon/evening.
Eclipses are still getting longer, and the sun angle is getting worse, too. It probably has experienced a low battery trip (least we hope it's that simple...)
Please watch and post on http://oscar.dcarr.org/

Hopefully, this is the last of the equipment.
I found an old FODTrack board. It is built, but it is not in an enclosure. Last time I used it with InstanTrack, it worked fine. I still have the Icom AG-25 2m preamp and an unmodded CalAmp 31732.
FODTrack: $75 OBO AG-25: $90 OBO CalAmp 31732: $30 OBO (Mod details are here: http://www.qsl.net/n9zia/wc0y/index.html)
Posting on QTH.com also.

I am so excited right now that I can barely type because I'm dancing a
jig.
AO-51 was working fine for the 2158Z, 4-13-2011 pass over my QTH (EM95md)
during
which I made my FIRST successful satellite QSO ever with K8YSE. Thank You K8YSE!!
My apologies to K8YSE for getting a bit tongue-tied but I was so excited
to hear
him repeat my call sign back and ask for the QSL that I about swallowed
the
microphone :-) What makes it even better was the fact that I make it a point of
recording the
passes so I have an audio recording of my first AO-51 QSO.
A big thanks to K6LCS (Clint) and his web site http://web.me.com/clintbradford/k6lcs/Home.html for all the tips and inspiration to give satellites a try.
WooHoo!!!!!!

Steve,
People like you are the reason that Drew KO4MA and I dropped what we were
doing/ran home from work early today to turn AO-51 back on.
Happy to hear about your first QSO! Congrats.
Hope to catch you in the log.

Hello,
ISS Status report for 4/13/2011 says:
"...Dmitri performed hardware deactivation & close-out activities
on the TEKh-43 Radioskaf-B "Kedr" test microsatellite in the MRM2 Poisk module which had been connected to an 825M3 Orlan battery..."
So, we are done for now. More to come in July. Stay tuned.

Uh, dude, you've caught it ... and it is quite contagious ... with few
known cures:
Satellite-itis.
I've tred everything to cure myself of this. Modern meds - legal and, er,
otherwise. Pina Coladas. Using VistaPrint to make AMSAT banners and informational post cards. Staying up for 48 hours preparing for a party and trying to work ARISSat-1 ... NOTHING has cured me of this malady.
Every once in a while, my wife will hear me exclaim from the back yard,
"I just talked to Vancouver!" I am sure she thinks I am nuts, and wonders why I just don't use the cell phone ...
>> ... recording the passes ...
What is your setup? A direct connection to your audio, or a smartphone
voice recorder app, or ??? ?
so I have an audio recording of my first AO-51 QSO.
>> ... A big thanks to K6LCS (Clint) and his web site ... for all

I am to old to get this affected ... thanks!

this is why we did not hear it....they had the 430mhz transmitter turned on... was anyone listening to the 70cm frequency? all the preparations on 2m and we were in the wrong place.
Afterwards, Dmitri performed hardware deactivation & close-out activities on the TEKh-43 Radioskaf-B ?Kedr? test microsatellite in the MRM2 Poisk module which had been connected to an 825M3 Orlan battery and operated its 430 MHz transmitter yesterday.

It's working for me. However, the About box shows "Version 2.0.0.8
[2011 Apr
13]".
Hey, that's TODAY ! Must be a VERY new version.

I did notice that the $99,999 remote software - yes, $99,999 - for the IC-9100 is now marked "TBD" in the price section.... I hope
someone
fat-fingered that one.

Has anyone on the list used the Icom 9100 yet? If so, what are you impressions of it?
