SpaceX F9 Transporter-5 - 2022-05-25 18:35UTC

To quickly explain without studying the Planetum document. UHF Radio had 42 minutes of uptime, Reset number 1, 16°C on board, 17°C on PA :slight_smile:

The full power transmission is allowed after 41 minutes of uptime

Three observation with possible (drifted) signal of Foresail-1:

https://network.satnogs.org/observations/5989434/
https://network.satnogs.org/observations/5989432/
https://network.satnogs.org/observations/5989433/

The signal is confirmed from more observations and it seems that the transmitter is off by ~3.7KHz. I’ve just updated the DB with this drift and I’ll update in the next minutes all the future observations.

Unfortunately nothing heard from SPiN-1 and Connecta T1.1 yet, on the other hand Planetum-1 is very active and strong on both UHF and VHF with many decoded data and soon there will be a decoder and a dashboard.

Foresail-1 way to low on either side of me both passes tonight (USA-East), but I could at least see it in the waterfall. Center freq appears to be close to 437.129.500 or maybe 437.129.450. Will just have to wait for the orbit to cycle around to be higher in my sky! -Scott, K4KDR

Hi, for Connecta T1.1 we got a new TLE from LeoLabs. Can you update the database accordingly…

@fredy isn’t there some code to generate a more up to date TLE from the waterfall/demod data? I remember that manual TLEs can be generated like this, but it seems like there’s a few seconds drift from some of the ones in Transporter-5 even with the Spacetrack update, so I wanted to see if I can execute that and update.

@oh2uds I’ve just updated the TLE set with the one you provided, I’ve just changed the NORAD ID to the temporary one we use:

CONNECTA T1.1
1 99394U 12345AAA 22146.05574467 +.00115451 +00000-0 +67471-4 0    01

Yes but this will need observations with data or even better strf observations. In the matrix channel we discussing this, feel free to join! We will post here any update as soon as we have something.

yes… observation and demodulation confirmed as follows;

please mark this observation as Connecta T1.1 with the current TLE

I have updated the TLE for Planetum-1 based on two observations:

PLANETUM 1

I would like to thank the satellite team for switching on the CW beacon for me, to easily and accurately measure the doppler! Thanks a lot! The two observation are only one and half hours apart, therefor the Mean Motion, might need another update tomorrow.

For Planetum, I have gathered more data. The previous TLE turned out to be quite good. This new one is just a minor update.

I made an update to the TLE for FORESAIL-1.

Picking points using the tabulation helper on two observations of the ITR station gives some data points. It is hard to click accurately on the wide band signal. The accuracy is a bit lower then normal. Also the observations span 2 days, and the first obs is getting aged already a bit.

Thanks @PE0SAT for double checking!

Thanks @EelkeVisser both TLE have been added in DB and Network!

Platform-1(aka SHAREDSAT 2141) has been added in DB and Network with the temporary NORAD ID 99393. The used TLE set that is used is the post-launch from celestrak until we have any update.

@EelkeVisser Can you try to plot the Connecta T1.1 as well… Looks like the current TLE is doing well, but might need som fine tune :slight_smile:
