Proposing a UHF downlink with 9k6 FSK 1k2 AFSK Analogue SSTV , a digitalker and CW. Planning a launch from the Uchinoura space Center into a 500km polar orbit. A downlink and inter-satellite link has been coordinated on 436.325 MHz as well as a downlink on 437.750 MHz
I’m not sure if I’ll manage to get prepared for that deployment on time, any help on adding the satellites and their transmitters in DB will be more than appreciated. More details on how to suggest satellites and transmitters can be found in Satellite Suggestions - SatNOGS Wiki and in Transmitter Suggestions - SatNOGS Wiki
The development of TCU-00 was reportedly discontinued in May 2022, and its components and technologies were subsequently incorporated into the development of TCU-01. Therefore, it is my understanding that TCU-00 is not expected to be launched as part of this mission.
As I understand it, STARS-X is a single spacecraft consisting of two sections connected by a deployable 1-km tether. Confusingly, these sections are referred to as the “parent satellite” and the “child satellite.”
According to the mission description, STARS-X carries only a small robot that moves along the tether and four mock debris targets. I am not aware of any independent daughter satellites being carried for deployment.

On the same pass, possible decodes from one of the Stars-X frequencies. Clocked in as 9k6 AX100 but nothing in the payload to confirm if it’s from Stars-X. Hope so!
