Hi Thu, I understand that due to the high power consumption of the FITSAT-1 LED's they will only be activated when FITSAT-1 is within range of the command station in Japan. I guess Việt Nam may also be in range at the same time. I am hoping that the lower power consumption of the fewer LED's on OSSI-1 will mean that it may be available to be seen in other parts of the world as well. 73 Trevor M5AKA > OSSI-1 General Overview http://www.uk.amsat.org/?p=9600 _______________________________________________ Sent via [email protected].
