AOBA-VeloxIII very strong CW as above. (14:40 UTC, 16 Jan 2017, Ele 35 deg) WASEDA-SAT3 not heard. (13:48 UTC, 17 Jan 2017, Ele 71 deg) TuPOD, Tancredo-1(UbatubaSat) not heard. (12:55 UTC, 18 Jan 2017, Ele 46 deg) ITF-2 very weak CW heard. (13:35 UTC, 19 Jan 2017, Ele 30 deg) Tancredo-1(UbatubaSat) AFSK tommorrow [amsat-bb] Tubesat Tancredo-1 From: Edson W. R. Pereira, PY2SDR Date: Wed Jan 18 18:55:07 UTC 2017 The tubesat Tancredo-1 (http://www.ubatubasat.com/en/), built by middle school students at the Tancredo Neves public school in Ubatuba, state of Sao Paulo, Brazil, is scheduled to be deployed from the TuPOD, a tubesat deployer developed by Gauss in Italy (http://www.gaussteam.com/tag/tupod/). TuPOD was successfully deployed from the ISS this past Monday, Jan 16th, and should start transmitting a CW beacon on 437.425 MHz for a few days, starting from tomorrow around 22:00 UTC. The Tancredo-1 deployment is also scheduled for tomorrow around 22:00 UTC and right after deployment it should start transmitting telemetry using packet radio (1200 bps AFSK) on 437.200 MHz with the callsign PY0ETA. The telemetry format is described in this document: https://goo.gl/qOK6qM Reports will be much appreciated and can be send online using this web page: http://www.amsat-br.org/tools/srs/ TuPOD, Tancredo-1(UbatubaSat) active http://www.gaussteam.com/tupod-almost-ready-for-launch/ http://www.gaussteam.com/satellites/tupod/radio-amateur-information-for-tupod/ We believe that NORAD assigned the identifier 41931 to the TuPOD. The following TLE will be valid for the complete period in which the satellite will be available for listening to it. 1998-067KT 1 41931U 98067KT 17019.24028552 .00011121 00000-0 16971-3 0 9997 2 41931 51.6424 60.8140 0009641 74.0252 286.1759 15.54943196 332

Integration of the TubeSats into the TuPOD by the GAUSS team, in Rome The two onboard TubeSats in TuPOD are: * TANCREDO-1, as part of the UbatubaSat Project, carried out by Brazilian students from "Escola Municipal Presidente Tancredo de Almeida Neves" together with INPE * OSNSAT, developed by the Open Space Network, a Californian space company. Cubesats launch and IDs [amsat-bb] Cubesats launch and IDs From: Nico Janssen, PA0DLO Date: Fri Jan 20 15:03:03 UTC 2017 Last Monday 2017-01-16 six cubesats were launched from the Japanese Kibo module of the ISS, using the J-SSOD cubesat deployer. ITF-2, Waseda-sat 3 and Freedom were deployed at 09:10 UTC. EGG was deployed at 09:20 UTC. AOBA-Velox 3 was deployed at 10:40 UTC. TUPOD was deployed at 10:50 UTC. The JSpOC published the first TLE sets two days after the launch and assigned preliminary IDs to the new cubesats. Detailed doppler measurements show that some of these IDs are not correct: TUPOD is object 41931, 1998-067KT ITF-2 is object 41932, 1998-067KU WASEDA-SAT3 is object 41934, 1998-067KW AOBA-Velox3 is object 41935, 1998-067KX Tancredo-1 is object 41936, 1998-067KY Around 23:30 UTC on 2017-01-19 the first ever Tubesats were deployed into orbit from the cubesat TUPOD, i.e. Tancredo-1 (Brazil) and OSNSAT (USA). Tancredo-1 is still close to TUPOD, so for the time being TUPOD's TLE set can be used to track this Tubesat.
