How to get a QSL card

@ra3ppy is there any 1k2 and 2k4 transmissions scheduled ? I have done deviation measurement on the 4k8 and 9k6 modes and did not have any IQ recordings on the slower ones.
Or if there’s recordings available already ?

Hi! At the moment, work is underway to set up the onboard telescope. The most comfortable speed for the 9k6 team. But if you need from Monday to Tuesday, after leaving the radio visibility zone of the MCC, we can transfer the satellite to 2k4 specifically for you.

That works, beaconing at 2k4 should be fine. I just need one strong frame, so if you already have a IQ recording or I can schedule on station 1888 that has good antennas and records IQ.
I did an observation earlier, but did not have IQ dump activated at that time.

Does this mean that pictures with the telescope, however, will be taken and transmitted in the 70cm band ? That would be an achievement :slight_smile:

Hello @tomasz . Yes, that’s exactly what we’re doing now. When everything is ready I will let you know.

There is the latest mission report for the next three months. It’s in Russian, but I think the auto-translator will handle it. If it’s interesting.

I really like the versatility of this satellite platform…

Today I decoded such a picture. But I’m not sure if the decoder works well.

Is it the so-called FLAT? Are you planning to transmit more pictures taken with the telescope’s camera?

Hello everyone, I’ve been capturing the telemetry over the last few days and just wanted to share a copy of an image with you from a pass earlier this evening.

Also does anyone else use the Sputnix Telemetry viewer and have the same error messages showing TLS initialization failed and have you been able to fix this?
and secondly how can I get this telemetry to load into the SatNOGS database?


Here is another photo of the capture.

Have you already tried uploading data after changing https to http in config.xml?

<Parameter>
   <ParmName>SiDS_URL_main</ParmName>
   <ParmDesc></ParmDesc>
   <ParmValue>https://db.satnogs.org/api/telemetry/</ParmValue>
</Parameter>

Alternatively, GetKISS+ is very popular for uploading telemetry data.

I’ve not tried that yet but I will do and see if it makes any difference.

Thank you
