SamSat-Ionosphere (RS75S) Transmissions

On April 12, 1961, the world witnessed one of the greatest achievements of mankind: Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin became the first person to fly into space! In connection with this significant event, the Interuniversity Department of Space Research is organizing an online event “Gagarin Day”. We invite you to celebrate this day with us by taking part in the video competition. Details can be found on the event website.

For radio amateurs receiving a signal from our spacecraft “SAMSAT-IONOSPHERE (RS75S)”, we are also preparing a surprise. In honor of Gagarin Day, a special type of festive beacon will be broadcast from RS75S, for the successful reception of which you can receive a commemorative card in electronic form. The transmission of the beacon “SAMSAT-IONOSPHERE (RS75S)” is carried out automatically at short intervals.

:bangbang:As the SamSat-Ionosphere (RS75S) does not have a specific topic, I thought it would be better to open a topic specifically for this satellite

I finally managed to copy the special message sent by the SamSat-Ionosphere (RS75S).

It is quite difficult because the interval between transmissions is very long :grin:.

This was definitely the fastest eQSL card I have ever received (just 18 minutes after the request) :partying_face::partying_face:

The card is very beautiful :star_struck: !!!
