Thanks!!

Very difficult to see a lot of difference in our packets either visually in the Audio spectrum (i.e., Audacity), or when both are transmitted for decode by Direwolf.

I transmitted mine over-the-air & actually received it in GQRX as would happen normally. With your packet, I just played it on the local machine into Direwolf.

… I certainly hope it’s not something silly like the ‘-6’ SSID on my source callsign. I’ll change that to a zero just to match one more characteristic of your uplink. Several passes tonight so I’ll keep trying! Thanks again for the recording.

might need a little tweak…Tnx

Did you already try GRBBeta (436.785 via HA2GRB) and BDSat-2 (436.025 via OK0BDT) on UHF?

I had excellent results w/ BDSat-2 but was only heard once by GRBBeta despite trying many, many times. Same situation… my uplink packets decoded perfectly over-the-air here, but GRBBeta just refused to hear (or understand) me.

GRBBeta has become very weak recently on UHF. And even before that, I was better copied by BDSat-2. However, LASARsat is even a notch better than BDSat-2.

Yes, we know… we plan to “somehow officially” switch to the MRC-100 based encoding scheme on GRBBeta UHF as well… then we will gain that ~10dB, which will help a lot :slight_smile:

@fredy Can you update the TLE for CTC-0 to:

1 98728U          24365.86355786 +.00027362 +00000+0 +12714-2 0 00146

This is from the temporary NORAD set, changed the ID to match the SatNogs one.

Thank you :slight_smile:

What is the initial NORAD ID of this set?

This is 88266 from the preliminary list - I will try to adjust to some of the other elements as well later. They go from 88242 to 88269.

Thanks for the info!

Is this list public? How you can get access on it?

Quick fit to one of today’s obs.

Seems okay on team’s operations ground station.

Even quicker one for CroCube. Not super confident on this one but recent observations are a bit meh.
