Hello, Daniel.
As I reported earlier, the satellite’s UHF radio has been updated and its capabilities have been expanded. The satellite is currently being used without interrupting broadcasts for amateur radio operators and school events. A new experiment has been conducted, and we are now receiving the results.

Hi, Aleksey.

I haven’t received my QSL yet. My spam folder is also empty. I guess there’s something wrong with my outlook email. Could you please send the certificate to another email?

Here’s my information:

Callsign: BG2MKP
Name: Shao Miao
QTH: Changchun, Jilin, China
Grid: PN23QV
Email: 3237453958@qq.com

Hi. Are you sure you sent the application through the form?

I can’t find your e-mail among the list of those who used the form for the quest.

I submitted the application through the form at 02:27 UTC on January 8, 2026. The email address I provided at that time was BG2MKP@outlook.com.

Done.
I’ve sent it via private message here to avoid any email issues. According to the form, your diploma was already submitted and processed a month ago.
Check your private messages.
Thanks! 73!

Thank you, I have received the diploma. Looking forward to next event!
