All,
A new unknown satellite has appeared which has a downlink near 436.370 MHz with 9600 bps telemetry. In its telemetry transmissions it identifies itself as MXSAT. Doppler measurements show that this MXSAT is object 43199, 2018-015H.

All,
Object 43199 has apparently been identified as Shaonian Xing (Youth Sat). So the unknown satellite that identifies itself as MXSAT-1 is actually the student satellite Shaonian Xing. It also means this satellite does not transmit on its coordinated frequencies. Let's wait and see if its FM repeater will be activated and on which frequencies it will operate. http://www.amsatuk.me.uk/iaru/finished_detail.php?serialnum=547

As far as I know, there has been no actual confirmation from anyone that "Shaonian Xing" is one of the 7 coordinated Juvenile series satellites. It's all been supposition based on the name.

True, it could be another satellite. It's not easy to interpret the limited information that has been published on this satellite, like on this page: https://gbtimes.com/china-launches-seismo-electromagnetic-probe-along-with-e...
Unfortunately the Chinese supply only very limited information on their satellites.
