Dinesh, Congratulations to you and your team on a successful launch and activation!
I am hearing SRMVU pretty well over North Carolina grid FM05pj at 13:53utc 12 Oct 2011. After the pass, I will send you an email with a link to the WAVE recording so you may decode telemetry if you wish. 73, Mark N8Mh On Wed, Oct 12, 2011 at 9:00 AM, Dinesh Cyanam <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello all, > Here are the updated keps for SRMSat (SRMVU) > > SRMVU > 1 55555U 11072A 11285.24558449 .00001106 00000-0 60777-3 0 1231 > 2 55555 19.9698 66.2533 0014244 344.0462 200.8483 14.10647952 17 > > Keps can also be downloaded from: > http://dinesh.cyanam.net/dl/SRMSat_Updated_Keps.txt > More info about CW telemetry decoding can be found at: > http://srmsat.in/srmvu.html > > 73 > KC2YQJ > Dinesh Cyanam > > On Oct 12, 2011, at 8:22 AM, Dinesh Cyanam wrote: > >> Hello Fellow Amateurs, >> We have received our first report from Ian Ashley, ZL1AOX, from New Zealand >> about successful copying of the beacon. >> -------------------------- >> CW copied in New Zealand at location RF72mv from 11:24 to 11:37 on >> 437.425+-, 13th October 2011. >> Thought I was recording but it didn't start.
