[amsat-bb] ARISSAT-1 report
Hi All, Just popped outside from the IARU Region 1 Conference meeting to catch an ARISSAT pass. Good signals with an Arrow and a FCD and also using a G0MRF prototype filter amplifier with 5v being supplied by the Dongle. (Thanks David for the loan) Voice telemetry reported MET of 41 mins - which corresponds very well to when it left eclipse over the Pacific. Battery volts 35.74 and current -4ma The signal had no fading but several occasional ~ 100 msec breaks in transmission were noted. best 73 from sunny ZS6 land Graham G3VZV ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.

Hi all, Listened for ARISSat-1 at 0605 hrs GMT here in Wales -UK. This pass was a low angle but I had no problems in hearing the transmissions on 145.825 Mhz, the satellite sounded very healthy and the voice and SSTV very clear indeed. My sincere congratulations to all concerned and of course to all whom gave the support to enable the project to proceed.Amateur Radio is well spoken for in its voice announcement.
