Good morning, I seem to be behind the power curve and am missing on quite an event with the new Qxcar-100. I may or my not have the equipment to contact or receive a beacon or even try to work through it but: What are its basic frequencies up/down link?What is/are the beacon frequencies?And at -122.000 vy 48.000 (CN87) can I "see" it)?What will be the uplink requested power?
I don't see it on most of the normal websites
Thank you John N7AME

Hi John,
I am afraid you are not in the coverage area see https://amsat-uk.org/2019/02/10/qatar-oscar-100-web-receiver-now-live/
but you can see and hear what is going on using the webSDR described above. The transponder S Band RX is amazingly sensitive and the X Band downlink mighty loud!

One basic requirement is that you are in Europe, Africa, or the Middle East.
