Ariane 6 VA262 - 2024-07-09 19:00 UTC

Hello everyone!
Adrian from 3Cat-4 here. We are having some issues with out battery, and it seems like the satellite went into critical mode due to a low battery level, and stopped transmitting the beacon. We were able to successfully receive some of the beacons and confirm the battery readings.
We are also working on releasing the decoder for the satellite, but it’s taking us some time as our GNURadio is ancient. Importantly, our modulation is GMSK 14400, not 9600.
If you receive any beacons as raw data and want to help us follow the status of the satellite, you can reach the team at join (at) nanosatlab.space.

Best regards,
Adrian.
