NG-14/ELaNa 31 Launch and Deployment Information

Some updates:

  1. Bobcat-1 is back for good, after some experiments at 38k4 is now transmitting at 1k2 baud rate.
  2. SPOC continues beaconing, we will need some newer TLE, probably generate some tomorrow.
  3. Unfortunately no news for the rest of the satellites. There is a chance Neutron-1 to transmit at 435.275, so we have scheduled some more observations to verify that. However, we discovered that AIST-2D is transmitting at 435.270MHz, something that we need to add in DB.
  4. While trying to generate TLE for Bobcat-1, we noticed some unknown signal on the observations above Europe. After a lot of speculation, we managed to find out that it is AISTECHSAT-2 of AISTECHSPACE.

AISTECHSAT-2 was declined coordination by IARU as it was a non-amateur mission:

However they ignored the regulations and proceed with transmitting at 436.730 MHz, and we discovered now that they also transmit at 436.600 MHz.
