An analog transponder of a amateur radio satellite "Fuji-3" stops now. We ask for an offer of the information for investigation and restoration of a cause.

Orbiting amateur satellite "Fuji-3" (FO-29, 8J1JCS) of JARL performed a consecutive use of regular analog system, but we confirmed the analog transponder which we should have been managing on 21 April 2007 stopped.

We apply it to the investigation of a cause in a control station and collect the information and analyze the telemetry before a transponder stops now. And we draw up a command plan toward the future restoration. As for the station having the following information about "Fuji-3", we wish to does an offer of these information in JARL Development Section.
