It was a great pleasure to watch the deployment of the ARRISSat-1 from the ISS on NASA TV. On behalf of AMSAT INDIA I would like to thank all at AMSAT , ARRISSat project team for enabling this capability for the Amateur Radio fraternity. I was able to hear the signals on 145.950 during the 03:57 UTC on 08/5/2011 over India and decoded a SSTV image and heard the CW on 145.919 but was unable to decode the telemetry using ARISSATLM application. Will try again to decode the telemetry and also the linear transponder. Many Radio Hams in Bangalore have reported hearing the signals on 145.950.

The recording of the voice message, SSTV and CW can be heard at http://vu3tyg.addr.com/ARRISSAT/rec0805-092348.mp3

I add it was against through all patronizing commenting when they first show up their protoboard model with jumping wires, I still remember some making jokes about it...
He's up and running fine with a back up transponder in bonus!
