Hi all,
w.r.t TLE's for Delfi-C3, for now we advise everyone to keep using the "old" TLE's as published on our Mission Operations Page at
http://www.delfic3.nl/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=93&a...
These seemed to match best on the last good pass over our groundstation this afternoon.
73!

Morning,
Just had my one shot for the morning and got an excellent signal, with AOS and LOS within seconds of predicted. The original keps are good enough for automatic frequency tracking, but it seemed to work better riding the VFO manually. There were a few deep fades which responded to reversing the antenna polarity.
The RASCAL program is slick, and nicely accessed the servers to upload the data. The indicated center frequency seems to bounce around a lot which makes it less useful than it might be for centering. However, a couple of minutes learning, and you can keep the sync indicator on.
Congratulations to the Delfi-C3 team!
73s,
Alan WA4SCA
