Five satellites which operate amateur band launch at 0408z 29th Oct by H-IIA F40. The satellites are Ten-Koh, PROITERES-2, DIWATA-2B, Stars-AO and AUTcube2. They will separate around Antarctica and toward South America.

Ten-Koh's web site shows its initial TLE as following. This will help for chasing the satellites. http://kit-okuyama-lab.com/%e3%81%a6%e3%82%93%e3%81%93%e3%81%86/ten-koh-orbi...
