Bill,

Thanks for the advices you sent me on the side, really great but honestly being taken with other projects I did not seriously tried to correct the issue of failures but can see that its still happening as the station here is on automatic mode permanently on FS3 these days.

Really great that so many OM’s are trying the bird.

I actually succeeded to upload a 20k image which was received OK by a few OM’s but now even a text message is failing, so at one point in time I got all working right but probably break something after. I will try to understand and solve the issue in the coming days.

Thanks to all concerned, for this super bird and software which allow us experimenting so much with the PACSAT protocol.

Hi Everyone, Callsigns seen by Falconsat-3 in March were;

A total of 39 callsigns seen by FS-3 in March. This is the largest number of callsigns in a single month on this sat ever!

New callsigns this month were - 3B8DU DG9MA F8CED K0FFY W03T

Welcome to all newcomers to this satellite. 3B8DU started by trying to upload image files. It seems he has uploading issues which he thinks may be due to his Tx desensing his Rx.

DG9MA has appeared only two times.

F8CED also appears to be having problems uploading messages, even small ones.

K0FFY and WO3T have appeared on FS-3 without too many problems it would seem.

Callsigns seen by FS-3 in; Dec 17 24
