Thank you, Wakita san,

I put the first picture from NIWAKA on the FITSAT-1 page. http://www.fit.ac.jp/~tanaka/fitsat.shtml Though the jpeg-picture was broken by data error, we can see the solar panels of ISS. 73 Takushi JA6AVG

Ground Stations say as follows.

At first we think to take down the photograph which FITSAT took at the time of release by the first priority. And we test it at the time to pass south around 45 degrees of the ground station. The range that we can receive is limited at present. We think to have the amateure ham of the other countries participate in this experiment of 5.84GHz after we took down the photograph which FITSAT took when KIBO released it.

We sent a command last night and took down some image data. Because we received it while correcting Doppler by hand, there were quite many errors. We were able to restore an image a little when we revised the error data by hand. And a solar panel of ISS came out. If we can be restored to the original state neatly, we will open it to the public.

JE9PEL, Mineo Wakita
