Mir-Sat-1 Deployment from ISS Tuesday Morning
Mir-Sat-1 will be deployed from the ISS Tuesday at 10.55 UTC by JAXA. This satellite will support an AX25 digipeter and images broadcast with the pacsat protocol. The images will be taken by its camera and stored in the onboard file system. Amateur stations will be able to request the directory of files and request the broadcast of images using a suitable ground station. Many thanks to Jean Marc and the amateurs on Mauritius for collaborating and getting Amateur Radio included on this mission.
I have updated the Pacsat ground station to support Mir-Sat-1. See my post here: https://www.g0kla.com/workbench/2021-06-18.php. If you use a GNU Radio tool chain then Dani has updated gr-satellites to support Mir-Sat-1. SatNogs is adding Mir-Sat-1 to its decoders and will also store the received telemetry. If you come up with your own decoder then please forward to SatNogs.
Use the ISS Keps initially to track it. There is an award for the first telemetry.
Feel free to ask any questions.

Will the digi be on 145.825 or does it have a different frequency plan? Might be just in time for Field Day! Bob

Bob,
I think it is a full duplex cross band digipeter like FalconSat-3. It is at 9600bps. I presume it is on the same frequencies as the files broadcasts and telemetry. Jean Marc can confirm. I put the frequencies here: https://www.g0kla.com/workbench/2021-06-18.php
Let's hope they can get it commissioned by next weekend and are willing to turn on the digipeter. I agree it would be great.

The satellite is alive. Big congratulations to the Mir-Sat-1 team. Jean Marc has received telemetry and is handling media inquiries but will no doubt make an announcement when he comes up for air.
I heard the spacecraft on it's most recent pass over North America but I can't decode the packet I received. So it is on. I am not sure of the beacon frequency because I only heard one packet, but it is not continuous. It is probably every few minutes. So track it and see what you can hear.
Initially during commissioning I expect it to be in telemetry mode only. We will have to wait and see how long it takes to turn on the PacSat broadcasts or the Digipeter. It is not listening for uplinks, so don't transmit to the spacecraft.

Chris + Team,
Any updates on the MIR-SAT1 radio?
I tried to listen on the first two passes of the ISS this AM - heard nothing:
436.925 MHz @ 9600 baud
Also, the SatNogs dashboard is reporting zero telemetry packets.
What is the ETA for turning on the things?

Also SatNogs is receiving all of the telemetry fine but they are just finishing up the display on the website. So it may show non data or old test data. They were asked quite late in the game to provide support and have done an amazing job quickly providing the needed infrastructure. Many thanks to the SatNogs team.

From this observation[1] by station "834 - Valpo WIRED Lab 1"[2], it looks like that MIR-SAT1 transmits every ~4min.

Excellent. Very good Fredy. So in a 10 min pass you are going to get 2 or maximum 3 frames. Given the usual issues with start and end of pass obstructions, 1 frame may be normal.

Chris,
Thanks for having explain my silence, was quite busy with the media. We got a superb media coverage in 3B8 and FR on TV about MIR-SAT1 promoting amateur radio role and contribution to the project.
I confirm that MIR-SAT1 is alive and TLM has been received by many stations, the firsts being by US stations, I also decoded well the TLM with Chris PsatGroundstation V0.41b which was successfully uploaded to Satnogs.
I wish to thanks all who sent me personal messages or through Twitter that they received the first MIR-SAT1 signals, it was a great joy to have confirmation that the birds was alive.
I also wish to thanks many HAMs to have supported the project from its initial stage, just to name a few which have been instrumental to make it happen, namely Chris Thompson (AC2CZ), Daniel Estevez (EA4GPZ), Graham Shirville (G3VZV), Hans Blondel-Timmerman (PB2T), Pierros Papadeas (SV1QVE) and Patrick Dohmen (DL4PD) of Satnogs, but also many others worldwide and 3B8 peers who contributed in one way or another to make it happen.
I confirm that for the moment MIR-SAT1 is on TLM mode only and will keep all posted about progress.
As one a personal note, today is a great day for me, just a childhood dream becoming true inspired by Neil Armstrong little step and well before obtaining my HAM licence at the age of 16 and making my firsts satellite QSO on AO-07/AO—08 in 1980, thus enjoying the champagne right now writing.
Thanks to all and long life to MIR-SAT1.

Chris + Team,
Any updates on the MIR-SAT1 radio?
I tried to listen on the first two passes of the ISS this AM - heard nothing:
436.925 MHz @ 9600 baud
Also, the SatNogs dashboard is reporting zero telemetry packets.
What is the ETA for turning on the things?

Mir-Sat-1 will be deployed from the ISS Tuesday at 10.55 UTC by JAXA. This satellite will support an AX25 digipeter and images broadcast with the pacsat protocol. The images will be taken by its camera and stored in the onboard file system. Amateur stations will be able to request the directory of files and request the broadcast of images using a suitable ground station. Many thanks to Jean Marc and the amateurs on Mauritius for collaborating and getting Amateur Radio included on this mission.
I have updated the Pacsat ground station to support Mir-Sat-1. See my post here: https://www.g0kla.com/workbench/2021-06-18.php. If you use a GNU Radio tool chain then Dani has updated gr-satellites to support Mir-Sat-1. SatNogs is adding Mir-Sat-1 to its decoders and will also store the received telemetry. If you come up with your own decoder then please forward to SatNogs.
Use the ISS Keps initially to track it. There is an award for the first telemetry.
Feel free to ask any questions.
