Hi Bob,
So, what is the final determination for the satellite's catalog numbers?

Hi Greg,
The numbers are in this file. I assume at this point they are correct.

Does anyone know what file/source that the droid app "ISS Detector" uses? It's still only showing PSAT2 as 44357 . 2019-036-U Rob KA2CZU

I know it gets its frequency data from SatNOGS. The developer responds to queries on Twitter.

Thanks, Fred. GPredict has them now, though there are now two PSAT2s in the database (other one is 44357). PSAT2 vs the correct PSAT-2. Note the dash. One needs to do some serious hard drive spelunking to clear out the prior information, so I'm just going to leave it there.

PSAT2 was originally conceived 4 years ago as PSAT-2 in contrast to the original PSAT. But since we use PSAT when the digi is on, and PSAT-1 when the digi is off, then it was a problem with what to do about PSAT-2.
So we put the "2" in the name so we could use the SSID to indicatet a change of state. So PSAT2-1 is safemode with DIGI off and PSAT2 is the callsign when the digi is on. Jusst like PSAT-1 and PSAT.
Right now, the DIGI is off since the uplink is on 145.98 for DTMF-grid experiment.
