The Colorado SpaceGrant Consortium had their ALL-STAR/THEIA satellite launch on the Dragon CRS-3 mission on Friday the 18th and the student team here at University of Colorado-Boulder is working on verifying that the satellite is indeed functioning. If anyone with an S-Band receiver would be able to assist in this it would be greatly appreciated. The satellite is currently identified by JSPOC as NORAD ID 39684, identifier 14022E. The downlink is 2401.7 MHz 254kbps BPSK. The satellite, when over the Boulder, CO area will point the transmit antenna at the ground station and transmit constant carrier with a 15s beacon interval, when not over Boulder the satellite will align the transmit antenna nadir and beacon every 15s, with no carrier in between. Any assistance in confirming that the satellite is transmitting, and beacon data if possible would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
