The first contacts were made using the amateur radio payload on SumbandilaSat during Sunday evening, October 18th.
From the SumbandilaSat Mission Blog:
During the first morning pass of Sun 18 Oct we have activated the voice beacon (435.350 MHz) at 07:48 UTC and switched on the bent-pipe transponder (uplink 145.880 MHz, downlink 435.350 MHz) during the first evening pass at 19:13 UTC, with several Radio Amateurs then operating through the satellite transponder.
You can listen to a recording made during the evening
