Students at the Ivy League Brown University are developing an amateur radio satellite
EQUiSat that will carry a Xenon Flash Tube (XFT) subsystem to act as an Optical Beacon
that should be visible to the unaided eye of observers on Earth.

I see that EQUISAT was deployed. And that initial signals were heard back
in July.
I cannot find anything posted since then.
Did anyone see its flashing LED's?

Hi Bob,
There was a discussion about EquiSat on the QRZ.com satellite forum earlier
this summer.
Here is the link to the thread ... I bet the URL will be clobbered so I made
a short link for you too:

There is nothing on that page that I can find that says anything about
operations or that answers the questions:
Is it transmitting a signal that can be heard since July?, and have they
turned on the LED's?, and has anyone seen them?

Hi Bob,
On SatNOGs you can see plenty of good telemetry observations recently:
https://network.satnogs.org/observations/?future=0&bad=0&unvetted=0…
On the EQUiSat web page, it shows most recent telemetry from today:
http://equisat.brownspace.org/data
The LEDs have flashed according to past telemetry but I don’t know who has seen them yet.
