SO-50 SAUDISAT-1C
Catalog number: 27607
Launch date: December 20, 2002 1700z
Launch site: Baikonur, Kazakhstan
Status: Operational

(not up and running currently)
To switch the transmitter on, you need to send a CTCSS tone of 74.4
Hz. The order of operation is thus: (allow for Doppler as necessary):
1) Transmit on 145.850 MHz with a tone of 74.4 Hz to arm the 10 minute
timer on board the spacecraft.
2) Now transmit on 145.850 MHz (FM Voice) using 67.0 Hz to PT the re-
peater on and off within the 10 Minute window.
3) Sending the 74.4 tone again within the 10 minute window will reset
the 10 minute timer.

To switch the transmitter on, you need to send a CTCSS tone of 74.4
Hz. The order of operation is thus: (allow for Doppler as necessary):
1) Transmit on 145.850 MHz with a tone of 74.4 Hz to arm the 10 minute
timer on board the spacecraft.
2) Now transmit on 145.850 MHz (FM Voice) using 67.0 Hz to PT the re-
peater on and off within the 10 Minute window.
3) Sending the 74.4 tone again within the 10 minute window will reset
the 10 minute timer.

ANS-104 ANS Special Bulletin - ARISSat-1 Not Heard During Gagarin
Commemoration

ARISSat-1 Not Heard During Gagarin Commemoration
AMSAT News Service Bulletin 104.01
>From AMSAT HQ SILVER SPRING, MD.
April 14, 2011
To All RADIO AMATEURS
BID: $ANS-104.01
The planned operation of ARISSat-1/RadioSkaf-V/KEDR on April
11 and April 12 from inside the International Space Station as part of the
commemoration of the 50th anniversary of Yuri Gagarin's flight was not
successful. No earth stations on the ground reported hearing transmissions
on the ARISSat-1 downlink(145.950 MHz for FM analog/145.920 MHz for
digital).
The planned retransmission of the satellite's FM downlink via the Kenwood
TM-D700 transceiver --currently used for ARISS contacts--was also not
successful as no reports were
received of signals heard on 437.550 MHz. However, a
similar ARISSat-1 transmission test conducted in February was successful,
with 145.950 MHz signals being successfully received by several ground
stations.
At this point it isn't clear to the ARISSat-1 team what went wrong with the
most recent test. Unfortunately, little information has been shared by
RSC-Energia concerning plans made to configure the satellite and the
interface used to connect the satellite to one of the external ARISS
antennas.
The status of the satellite's Russian-provided silver zinc battery is also
unknown.
ARISSat-1 is a cooperative effort of AMSAT, RSC-Energia and NASA. AMSAT
designed and built the spacecraft as a prototype of a proposed series of
educational satellites which can carry student-built experiments. The
ARISSat-1 prototype features a student experiment designed and built by
Kursk State Technical University in Russia. A backup was also provided
(without solar panels). AMSAT delivered the two units to NASA's Johnson
Space Center in Houston, TX in early October. NASA has led the integration
of ARISSat-1 into the ISS flight program. NASA coordinated the logistics of
transporting the satellite and a backup unit, including export licensing,
from Houston to Moscow. The shipment occurred in early December immediately
following RSC-Energia confirmation that the appropriate import documentation
had been approved. NASA also conducted the three-phase Payload Safety
Review that ARISSat-1 had to pass in order to be permitted to be shipped to
the ISS and deployed from the Space Station. Per protocol agreements signed
by AMSAT, NASA and RSC-Energia, RSC-Energia assumed full responsibility for
ARISSat-1 after NASA shipped the prime and backup units. RSC-Energia's
stipulated responsibilities included integration of the Kursk experiment,
providing a silver zinc battery for the spacecraft, shipment of the primary
flight unit to the ISS via a Progress Cargo vehicle (which took place in
January 2011) and subsequent deployment during a planned Russian EVA in
February 2011.
Once AMSAT shipped ARISSat-1 and the backup unit in early October, AMSAT was
no longer directly involved with management and operation of the satellite.
AMSAT agreed to send a representative to Moscow (Lou McFadin, W5DID) in
order to assist with testing and final checkout of the satellite once it
arrived from the US. Lou was accompanied by NASA's Mark Steiner, K3MS and
the requests for visas and access the RSC-Energia facilities was coordinated
by NASA. Due to visa limitations (Russia does not allow changes to visas
once individuals are in Russia), the window for Lou's and Mark's time in
Moscow could not be changed once it became apparent that the shipment was
being held by Russian customs and wouldn't be released until after the
expiration of visas.
During the time that Lou and Mark were in Moscow, testing procedures were
drafted and agreed to by RSC-Energia's principal investigator for ARISSat-1
(Sergey Samburov, RV3DR) as a signed protocol to assist the Russian
engineers with testing and checkout without the presence of AMSAT. Lou and
Mark departed Moscow on 22 DEC 10 for the US and the satellite with the
backup unit were subsequently released from Russian customs and delivered to
RSC-Energia on
28 DEC 10 following submission of appropriate documentation by RSC-Energia.
In addition to the missed opportunity for AMSAT and NASA to participate in
the checkout in Moscow, the delayed release from Russian Customs also meant
that the satellite arrived in RSC-Energia just as they were commencing a
10-day total holiday shutdown from 1-10 JAN 11. In order to make launch of
the Progress 41P cargo vehicle to the ISS in January, the satellite had to
be flown to the Baikonour Cosmodrome on
11 JAN 11, the day after RSC-Energia personnel returned from their holiday.
Sergey Samburov, RV3DR spent a period of time during the holiday period
conducting a checkout of the satellite, but it is still unclear whether the
documentation provided by Lou McFadin and Mark Steiner and agreed to as a
protocol was followed. For example, AMSAT and NASA have yet to receive any
of the full set of closeout photographs of the satellite's exterior
stipulated in the protocol.
The satellite did make the flight to Baikonour and was subsequently flown to
the ISS on 28 JAN 11 on Progress cargo vehicle 41P. Once the satellite
arrived at the Space Station, there was another unexpected alteration to the
original plan which has been previously agreed to by AMSAT, NASA, and
RSC-Energia. Russian officials now wanted confirmation that the satellite
was in working order prior to EVA deployment.
Why this decision was made was never fully explained to AMSAT or NASA. Even
though the satellite was never intended to be operated from inside the ISS,
the RSC-Energia team made plans to operate ARISSat-1 from inside the ISS
during the period
10-13 FEB 11, connecting the two-meter transmitter to one of the external
antenna used for ARISS contacts with the intent of getting confirmation from
ground stations that the satellite's transmissions could be received by
amateur radio stations on the ground. This unexpected development raised
AMSAT and NASA concerns given the potential for damage to the spacecraft
inside the ISS and the possibility of misinterpretation of results. Despite
these concerns, the test was successfully conducted on 10 FEB 11 for 20
hours with the Kenwood TM-D700 on the ISS used to verify normal transmission
from the satellite. Ground stations, including Tony Monteiro AA2TX, did
provide reception reports confirming successful operation of the satellite.
ARISSat-1 was scheduled to be deployed during Russian EVA-28, scheduled for
16 FEB 11, as one of the planned tasks on that EVA. However, AMSAT and NASA
were informed on 11 FEB that RSC-Energia officials decided to remove the
satellite deployment from the Russian EVA-28 schedule of activities due to
complications with another task scheduled for that EVA. AMSAT and NASA were
informed that the
ARISSat-1 deployment would be rescheduled and included as a task in the next
Russian EVA, currently scheduled for July 2011. Around the same time, the
RSC-Energia Principle Investigator mentioned the possibility of a "special
event involving ARISSat-1" around the date of the 50th anniversary of the
Gagarin flight commemoration on 12 APR 11. AMSAT and NASA inferred that, by
retaining the satellite onboard the ISS until the next Russian EVA in July,
RSC-Energia could ensure that the satellite could be activated within the
ISS specifically for the Gagarin Commemoration.
During the period from the testing on 10 FEB 11 to the planned time of
activation on 11 APR 11, the satellite was placed in storage on the ISS.
AMSAT and NASA were not informed of the configuration the satellite was in
when it was stored, though it appears that the Lexan covers over the solar
panels had been removed and replaced by 'soft covers'
that were meant to be used only in preparation for deployment.
We were not informed if the satellite was deactivated following the test, or
if the battery was disconnected to prevent drainage, or if the satellite may
have been inadvertently left on. Given that operation of the satellite from
within the ISS was never part of the original plan and these activities took
place without AMSAT and NASA involvement, the ARISSat-1 engineering team is
in the dark concerning the impact of storage on the satellite. As the
originally agreed-to plan was to deploy the satellite within only a few
weeks of arrival on the ISS, there were no provisions made in the satellite
design to prepare the satellite for long-term storage on the ISS.
Adding to the lack of information was that the primary RSC-Energia Principle
Investigator for ARISSat-1 went on vacation for the entire month of March
and there wasn't a designated backup to coordinate with AMSAT and NASA.
Sergey, RV3DR returned from vacation on 1 APR 11, but was unavailable for
the regularly scheduled weekly conference call that was scheduled to take
place on 5 APR 11. This meant that AMSAT and NASA were not apprised of the
details for planned operation of ARISSat-1 for the Gagarin Commemoration
until late in the first week in April. AMSAT sent out a press release to
the media on Friday, 8 APR 11, as well as a special ANS Bulletin containing
the information that had been provided to AMSAT through information gathered
by our counterparts at NASA who have access to a schedule of the planned
daily activities of the ISS crew.
The documentation for the configuration and operation on 11-12 APR was
developed by RSC-Energia without AMSAT or NASA input.
AMSAT and NASA were provided a draft plan only a couple of days prior to
operation; that document was in Russian and we could not comment on it prior
to planned activation. One new development was the last-minute decision by
RSC-Energia to retransmit the ARISSat-1 two-meter FM downlink on 70 CM by
configuring the Kenwood TM-700 that is currently used for ARISS contacts in
cross-band repeat mode. The ARISS team was asked for a recommendation on
which frequency would be appropriate to use, and the suggestion was made to
use 437.550 MHz. However, procedures for configuration of the TM-D700 were
not shared with AMSAT or NASA. There remains the distinct possibility that
the unsuccessful result of this test was due to a misconfiguration of
ARISSat-1, its interface to the ARISS external antenna, or the TM-D700.
An additional consideration is that the Cosmonauts who were available for
the Gagarin Commemoration were not necessarily the same individuals involved
with the 'test' in early February due to a planned crew rotation that took
place in early April, where three individuals (two Russian, one American)
were flown to the ISS to supplement three individuals who were still
onboard.
Neither AMSAT nor NASA received any status reports directly from RSC-Energia
during the timeframe of the planned operation. We also don't know what the
Cosmonauts found when they operated the three activation switches on the
control panel, such as whether the LEDS were lit or not. The status of the
flight battery is currently unknown to AMSAT and NASA.
Hopefully, RSC-Energia will provide an update on the status of the satellite
to AMSAT and NASA and a determination can be made of the health of the
satellite.
As noted above, ARISSat-1 is made possible through the cooperation of
RSC-Energia, NASA and AMSAT. However, the degree of information received
from RSC-Energia has been very sporadic, given that ARISSat-1 is technically
a Russian satellite (callsign RS01S), and, per the signed protocol
agreements, RSC-Energia has assumed full responsibility for all activities
associated with ARISSat -1 from pre-launch preparation in Moscow through EVA
deployment from ISS. Indeed, RSC-Energia has never publicly acknowledged
that AMSAT was the organization that built the satellite nor the significant
NASA involvement in the project. Clearly, what our expectations are
concerning 'transparency' of information does not coincide to what
RSC-Energia has been willing to share to date.
We will continue our efforts to gain insight from RSC-Energia concerning
what transpired regarding their planned Gagarin Commemoration event. We're
anxious to know the status of the satellite as well as prospects for
deployment in July. We are dependent upon the willingness of RSC-Energia to
keep AMSAT and NASA informed. As we are apprised of developments, we will
share that information.

(not up and running currently)
To switch the transmitter on, you need to send a CTCSS tone of 74.4
Hz. The order of operation is thus: (allow for Doppler as necessary):
1) Transmit on 145.850 MHz with a tone of 74.4 Hz to arm the 10 minute
timer on board the spacecraft.
2) Now transmit on 145.850 MHz (FM Voice) using 67.0 Hz to PT the re-
peater on and off within the 10 Minute window.
3) Sending the 74.4 tone again within the 10 minute window will reset
the 10 minute timer.

AMSAT News Service Bulletin 102.01
>From AMSAT HQ SILVER SPRING, MD.
April 12, 2011
To All RADIO AMATEURS
BID: $ANS-102.01
The AMSAT News Service has received the latest information regarding
the planned activation of ARISSat-1 aboard the ISS which has been
awaited by the amateur radio community all day Monday.
ARISSat-1 Project Manager, Gould Smith, WA5SXM reported that aboard
the ISS, "Cosmonaut Dmitri performed hardware setup and test activa-
tion of the 'KEDR' microsatellite aboard the Russian segment of the
ISS by connecting the satellite to an Orlan battery and checking out
its transmitter from the satellite control panel."
A status report received via NASA assures the amateur radio commun-
ity that, "KEDR (ARISSat-1) will be activated onboard the station on
April 12 to celebrate Cosmonautics Day, when the world celebrates the
anniversaries of the first human flight into space and the first
Space Shuttle flight."
The crew aboard the ISS operates on UTC time and sleeps from 2130Z
to 0600Z. The ARISSat-1 team is awaiting the next crew activity to
commence after 0600Z on April 12.
Depending on which press release information you find on-line the
names ARISSat-1, RadioSkaf-V, RadioSkaf-B, KEDR are all names for
the same satellite.
Once activated on April 12, the 145.950 MHz FM downlink will
transmit messages a continuous sequence, one of which is the
Gagarin-to-ground station conversation, famous "Poyekhali"
(Let's Go!) from Yuri Gagarin from Earth orbit. This downlink
frequency will also transmit spoken telemetry, SSTV images, and
pre-recorded messages of goodwill.
ARISSat-1 also bears the name KEDR in honor of the call sign of Yuri
Gagarin during his historic space flight. According to the Russian
Space Agency, KEDR is the first phase in Russia's integrated program
approved by UNESCO, with the goal to create and operate mini-satel-
lites with a mass less than 100 kg by the combined efforts of students
across the world.
KEDR (ARRIsat-1) currently contains a student experiment designed by
the Russian Kursk State University. AMSAT has built three additional
ARISSat-1 spaceframes which are available for future flights to con-
tinue with the goal of flying student space experiments. Each ARISSat
spaceframe has the capability to support five experimental packages
in addition to its amateur radio payload. The BPSK-1000 telemetry
beacon on 145.920 MHz will provide a forward error corrected downlink
capable of reliable reception of data in low signal level conditions.

ARISSat-1 Project Manager, Gould Smith, WA4SXM described the tasks
for the cosmonauts as they turn on ARISSat-1. The work to turn on
ARISSat-1 is scheduled to begin at 1430 UTC on April 11. This means
that they will begin the procedure of getting the satellite, moving
the antenna coax, adjusting the antenna switches in the ISS, then
flipping the three switches on the satellite control panel to ON.
These switches and the circuitry are designed to keep the satellite
from transmitting for 15 minutes after all three switches are in the
ON position. This was done so as not to pose any hazard to the cosmo-
nauts during the EVA to deploy the satellite. Based on this timeline
it is estimated that there will be no transmissions until around 1500
UTC while the ISS is over the southeastern Pacific. Other than ships,
southern South America should be the first area to hear the ARISSat-1/
RadioSkaf-V signals.
ARISSat-1 will be in Low Power mode, 40-60 seconds ON and 2 minutes
OFF. An average 8 minute pass will only have about three transmission
periods and two minutes can seem very long when waiting for a signal
to appear. Be patient! The varying ON times occur because the ON timer
expires depending on the current FM transmission item in progress. The
ID, telemetry, greeting, SSTV will finish before the transmitter shuts
off.
The ARISSat-1 team invites you to enjoy the event in celebration of
the 50th Anniversary of man's first trip into space. Yuri Gagarin
made the historic trip on 12 April 1961.

BID: $ANS-101.02
ARISSatTLM author Douglas Quagliana KA2UPW/5 has issued a first
call for ARISSat-1 audio recordings when the satellite is activated
aboard the ISS between Monday, 11 April 2011 at 14:30 UTC and con-
tinuing until 10:30 UTC on 13 April 2011.
The satellite will be running off of the battery, so the transmis-
sions will be only 40-60 second long. There will be a delay of about
two minutes between transmissions. That is, about 40-60 seconds ON,
then about two minutes OFF (silence).
If you are able to make an audio recording of the signals from
ARISSat-1, Douglas would be very interested in obtaining a copy of
your recording. He is most interested in recordings of the CW and
BPSK signals, but if are able to record the voice and SSTV signals
he is interested in those too.
If you can make an SDR recordings (I and Q) with a Funcube dongle,
FlexRadio, or SDR-IQ, record at the highest rate that your hardware
and software supports. If you are making a regular audio recording,
set the sampling rate to the "highest quality." If you can choose
sample sizes, for example between 8-bit and 16-bit samples, choose
the largest size.
Douglas is interested in collecting as large of a sample set of
received ARISSat-1 signals as possible. Please save your recordings
as .WAV files. Don't use MP3 format and don't convert the record-
ings into MP3 recordings. Leave the recordings as huge .WAV files.
If you successfully record ARISSat-1's signals, please contact Douglas
via e-mail for details on how to get the recording file(s) to him:

ARISSat-1 to Help Celebrate Gagarin Flight Anniversary
Â
ARISSat-1 transmissions from the ISS will be used to help celebrate
man's 50th year in space. Yuri Gagarin became the first man in space
on 12 April 1961. Fifty years later on 12 April 2011 the Russians
will have a nationwide commemoration of this historic event.
The ARISSat-1/RadioSkaf-V satellite on board the ISS and awaiting
deployment in late July of 2011 will be turned on and transmit
during the celebration period. The transmissions will begin on
Monday 11 April 2011 at 14:30 UTC and continue until 10:30 UTC on
13 April 2011. Due to the fact that the solar panels are covered,
the satellite will be powered only by the onboard battery. The
satellite will run in low power mode. This means that the transmissions
will cycle ON/OFF. They will be On for 40-60 seconds and Off for
2 minutes. The FM transmissions on 145.95 MHz will contain an ID
for the satellite, call sign RS01S, international greeting messages,
spoken telemetry values and SSTV images. There will also be CW
transmitted on 145.919 MHz and SSB BPSK-1000 telemetry data on
145.920 MHz. ARISSatTLM software can be used with a computer
soundcard to tune, receive, demodulate, decode and display the
telemetry values if tuned correctly. The transponder will not be
active during this event.
AMSAT will issue commemorative certificates to those receiving the
transmissions and sending an email to gagarin(a)arissat1.org or
yuri(a)arissat1.org with your name or group, a description of what
you heard and the UTC time you heard it. Recording the Battery
voltage values and the UTC time you received them will beÂ
especially helpful.
One of the messages will be a conversation between Yuri Gagarin
and ground control. The ARISS team is working to get the
D-700 aboard the ISS to also transmit the FM signals on 437.550 MHz.

SATPC32 DOPPLER.SQF Data for ARISSat-1 Special Event
Alan, WA4SCA has worked out the ARISSat-1 data to add to the SATPC32
tracking software for the April 11 - April 13 activation aboard the
ISS.
Alan wrote, "If you are going to be listening for ARISSat-1 and use
SATPC32, you will be using the ISS for antenna tracking, but you will
need to add a few modes in the DOPPLER.SQF file for the ISS."
ISS,145918.5,0,USB,,,0,0,BPSK/CW-2
ISS,145950.0,0,FM,,,0,0,VOICE/SSTV
ISS,145938.5,0,USB,,,0,0,CW-1
If you use a name other than ISS, such as Zarya, then substitute
that so SATPC32 will know what you mean.
These new ARISSat modes will appear along with all the "real" ISS
modes. The FM frequencies should be good, and the SSB modes as usual
will need a little tweaking. Assuming your rig is calibrated, you
should be at least close enough to hear the short transmit periods.

there will be two special event stations active from the cosmodrome in
Baikonur. R50YG (Yuri Gagarin) and R50SK (Sergej Korolev) will be QRV
from Apr 6-14. Both stations will take part in the "Gagarin Cup 2011"
contest and count as an additional multiplier in this contest.
Furthermore there will be also the special callsign R50KEDR (KEDR was
the callsign of Yuri Gagarin during his flight) activated from the
launch site of Yuri Gagarin on Apr 12 from 0507 until 0655 UTC. This
is the same time like the 108 minutes of Gagarin's first flight.

BID: $ANS-098.01
SILVER SPRING, MARYLAND (AMSAT News Service) While awaiting
deployment from the International Space Station (ISS) in late
July, an amateur radio satellite specifically designed to in-
terest students in scientific and technological careers will
be activated and begin transmissions from the ISS in mid-April
of this year.
Transmissions are scheduled to begin Monday around 14:30 UTC
April 11 and ending Wednesday around 10:30 UTC on April 13.
Electronic certificates of the event will be available to those
summitting reception reports to: Gagarin(a)arissat1.org.
These transmissions will commemorate 50 years since the flight
of Russian Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin as the first human to enter
outer space. The satellite (called ARISSat-1, RadioSkaf-V) will
send telemetry, SSTV images, and messages of goodwill as it
orbits earth inside the ISS.
ARISSat-1 is a cooperative effort between AMSAT, ARISS (Amateur
Radio on the International Space Station,) RSC-Energia (The Russian
Space Agency) and NASA. The design, development and construction
of the satellite was done by AMSAT volunteers. Original plans call-
ed for the satellite to be housed inside an old Russian spacesuit.
But when the suit became unavailable, a spaceframe was developed
to house the radio equipment and solar panels. The new satellite
was named ARISSat-1. Other names for the spacecraft are RadioSkaf-V
and Kedr. The transmitted callsign will be RS01S.
In order to operate inside the ISS, ARISSat-1 will be connected to
an external amateur radio antenna already mounted on the outer sur-
face of the space station. The craft will use its own battery for
operation, therefore it will be in low power mode. As a result,
listeners can expect 40-60 second "ON" periods followed by two-minute
"OFF" periods to save battery power.
To listen for ARISSat-1 voice signals during this special event, FM
receivers should be tuned to 145.950 MHz. Specific only to this event,
planning is currently underway to provide an additional FM broadcast
downlink at 437.550 MHz. Even though the satellite will only have an
output of 250 mW on 2 meters, a standard FM handy talkie equipped with
a quarter-wave whip antenna should be able to receive the voice ID,
voice telemetry and greeting messages as the craft passes overhead.
SSTV transmissions may also be demodulated and viewed using a free
downloadable program such as MMSSTV that is available at:
http://mmhamsoft.amateur-radio.ca/pages/mmsstv.php.
For Mac users, Multiscan2 is available at:
http://web.me.com/kd6cji/MacSSTV/MultiScan.html.
Those planning to monitor voice broadcasts from ARISSat-1 are request-
ed to make note of the telemetry battery voltage values and UTC time,
and then submit their records to Gagarin(a)arissat1.org. Digital tele-
metry will be sent at 145.920 MHz. Given the low duty cycle of the
spacecraft, those planning to receive the digital telemetry are en-
couraged to record the entire signal band using the FunCube dongle
or SDR-IQ receivers.
Software for demodulating the BPSK-1000 telemetry is available at:
http://www.arissattlm.org/download/ARISSatTLM_050_Setup.exe
A software user guide will be available soon.
This special period of operation is only expected to continue during
the two-day 50 year commemoration of Gagarin's famous mission.
The actual deployment of ARISSat-1, first announced for February 2011,
is now expected to take place during an EVA scheduled for late July,
2011. After it is deployed from the International Space Station,
ARISSat-1 is expected to be in orbit for a period of up to six months.

ARISSat-1 can be found at:

The Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT) is a non-profit,
volunteer organization which designs, builds and operates experi-
mental amateur radio satellites and promotes space education. We
work in partnership with government, industry, educational instit-
utions and fellow amateur radio societies. We encourage technical
and scientific innovation, and promote the training and development
of skilled satellite and ground system designers and operators. Our
vision is to deploy satellite systems with the goal of providing
wide area and continuous coverage for amateur radio operators world-
wide. AMSAT is also an active participant in human space missions
and supports satellites developed in cooperation with the educational
community and other amateur satellite groups.
Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) is a volun-
teer program which inspires students, worldwide, to pursue careers
in science, technology, engineering and math through amateur radio
communications opportunities with the International Space Station
on-orbit crew. Students learn about life on board the ISS and explore
Earth from space through science and math activities. ARISS provides
opportunities for the school community (students, teachers, families
and local residents) to become more aware of the substantial benefits
of human space flight and the exploration and discovery that occur on
space flight journeys along with learning about technology and amateur
radio.

To switch the transmitter on, you need to send a CTCSS tone of 74.4
Hz. The order of operation is thus: (allow for Doppler as necessary):
1) Transmit on 145.850 MHz with a tone of 74.4 Hz to arm the 10 minute
timer on board the spacecraft.
2) Now transmit on 145.850 MHz (FM Voice) using 67.0 Hz to PT the re-
peater on and off within the 10 Minute window.
3) Sending the 74.4 tone again within the 10 minute window will reset
the 10 minute timer.
