Operational satellites
« on: March 24, 2004, 05:05:52 PM »

I heard QSOs on satellites AO-27, S0-50 and FO-29. Is there any other FM satellite which is operational as these three beside ISS?

AO-7 works in the sunlight, and is usually in Mode B, but it is SSB/cw only...

(I just posted about this in the SO-41 status thread) ...

... SO-41, according to AMSAT, is supposed to be operational as an analog FM voice sat.  Unfortunately, the sat isn't operational and nobody sent me a memo on that... even AMSAT still lists it as operational!

Anyway... I've been successful listening to AO-27 and SO-50 passes.

Hi Chris!
Which is the min and max power you are using to communicate via the AO-27 and SO-50?


Best regards and wishes

I've been listening ... as I indicated in my post.  As soon as I get or build an appropriate antenna, then I'll transmit.  Using a Yaesu VX-7R.

Build a couple of moxon rectangles- that should be enough to get you in to the birds.
