Out of curiosity - what is the status of this bird? It shows up in the NASA orbital info, but not in the Amateur in the SatPC32 tracking selections.
The German Orbital Systems site does not elaborate on some of the details. particularly if one wished to configure a D-Star rig and try it. With IC-9700's proliferating I would expect some noise if it is accessible.
Any info or help would be appreciated.

The last I heard was that it was being launched and then no further information was released afterwards. I take that as the bird is non-operational.

Yeah asked for further details on DSTAR One group of satellites but the operator doesn't reply to emails and no updates so guessing failed mission.
