EIRSAT-1 is close to its re-entry, I’ve opened this thread to track it and publish any updated TLE.
EIRSAT-1 Flies about 1 min earlier from current TLE.
Manual Doppler correction.

“So big and flat and round, it needs a big wide-sounding name like … ow … ound … round … ground! That’s it! That’s a good name — ground! I wonder if it will be friends with me?”
Indeed the TLE were off, but there was an update earlier today that seems to fit for now the singals. Let’s keep tracking!

BEEGND-4 will upload the IQ data from its observation to our cloud if anyone wants to use them for STRF (remember they are already Doppler corrected) or for manual decoding of the data:
