According to what was declared in the ITU, the DL frequency of Istanbul should be 402.075 Mhz

At the request of Rony (SATLLA Team), I have added a transmitter suggestion for SATLLA-2I

https://db.satnogs.org/satellite/XDTB-0414-1246-0782-0962#transmitters

… for the GFSK capability that’s included with their satellite’s radio.

These modules are most often used for LoRa, but absolutely support other modes. However, while we normally associate GFSK with FM modulation, previous testing (as well as the code shown below from SATLLA-2I’s programming) indicate that these signals decode when SSB demod is used:

SATLLA-2I_GFSK-parameters

… so, if this suggestion is added to the list of potential transmitters for SATLLA-2I, would it be possible to schedule some SatNogs observations to increase the odds of finding this new satellite?

Thanks!

Good catch, I’ve changed Istanbul transmitter, the future observations will be updated accordingly.

Thanks for adding it, I’m not sure if the coordination is valid for this satellite, as each satellite needs separate coordination with IARU.

I’ll try to schedule some observations and see if we can get anything.

May I ask how many satellites on the rocket have been successfully received so far?
Can list the confirmed satellites for future observations will appreciate…
Thanks
:pray:

Currently the biggest challenge is identifying, we have multi signals and no idea to what satellite they belong.

Even on Ham radio UHF where this is mandatory, a signal on 436.630 no idea what satellite.

Can you update it in the scheduler as well? I just re-schedule a few for our station (2380, see e.g. SatNOGS Network - Observation 7759809), but still uses the previous one with a different mean motion (15.13242215 c/d instead of 15.13266641 c/d).

I did and also fix my copy paste error, so now you can see the updated TLE set in the post.

I see, thanks! So does it mean that the mean motion is not changed since yesterday?

Unfortunately the fit wasn’t done for mean motion, this usually needs more than one observations to have better accuracy and in this case the fit was done on one observation. Let’s see if the next hours space-track.org will publish TLE/objects from the ION deployment, if not we can try to fit more than one observations and get mean motion also updated.

EDIT: feel free to join the #satnogs matrix channel where we discuss all these matters

would it help if we make an i/q recording from this? SatNOGS Network - Observation 7760476. The previous high pass (SatNOGS Network - Observation 7752590) was rather good, but there is no i/q saved :confused:

It may help but not sure if it will need some extra process, we perform the fit by using strf tools for observations and fit.

Based on latest @PE0SAT TLE set and some network observations I’ve managed to generate a little better TLE set with mean motion also fitted:

it is interesting that the mean motion decreased quite prominently

I think it is normal given that for the initial TLE set we used the one of the ION deployer which has different size and mass.

Looks good: SatNOGS Network - Observation 7761089, SatNOGS Network - Observation 7761090
