New information on the identity of BRICSat, NO-83 has been been received from Nico Janssen, PA0DLO. Nico (with the help of Jan, PEOSAT) came up with an ingenious way of making the tight-lipped BRICSat tell us which object it really is. See excerpt from Nico's email to me below. From Nico Janssen, PA0DLO - >> To be able to receive downlink signals from BRICSat, I asked >> Jan, PE0SAT, to assist by transmitting PSK31 signals to this >> satellite on the 10 m uplink, hoping the downlink would switch ...Continue Reading

DEORBITSAIL (NORAD ID #40419) has been added to the AMSAT KEP distribution this week. The TLEs associated with NO-83 (BRICSAT, NORAD ID #40655) have been changed to match the TLEs (Ultrasat-3) used by the BRICSat team. Since BRICSat transmits infrequently, it has been difficult to identify which object is in fact BRICSat. (Thanks to the BRICSat team, Nic Janssen (PA0DLO), and others who have been working on the identification of BRICSat.) _______________________________________________ Via the Keps mailing list ...Continue Reading
