Voice of the Robot,

I hear this Robot voice many times and I know she speak the next engineering data.
She send the accurate numerical value every moment from the space.
MET = 370 min
IHU Temp = +28 degC

This is a voice of the boy. Because I hear a word Puerto Rico,
I think that a language speaking is Spanish.

This is the Voice of Wesley in Castilian, KP4WES - boy from Puerto Rico.
He's only 12 years, he is always active in AO-51 and VO-52. Very cool.
Color of callsign by JE1CVL
The color of the callsign in the upper left of the image indicates which of
the 4 cameras took the photo.
Red callsign [-Y pointing camera, mirror reverses image].
Green callsign is the top view [+Z pointing camera] and sometimes has the 2 meter antenna in view.
Blue callsign is the bottom view [-Z pointing camera].
Magenta callsign [+Y pointing camera, mirror reverses image].
ARISSat-1 Deploy Success
The development of ARRISSat-1 succeeded in the night on 3 August 2011.
I caputured the following picture from NASA-TV then, and I noticed that
ARISSat-1 leads to ISS with a long string and floats in the space.
And ARISSat-1 was deployed in a state without 430 antennas after this.

ARISSat-1/KEDR RECEPTION REPORT CERTIFICATES
---------------------------------------------------
When you receive the downlink signal from ARISSat-1/KEDR you are
invited to send your report to the following e-mail boxes.
You will receive a PDF certificate by e-mail.
Students and school groups are especially welcome!
We look forward to your report!
Your report must contain the following information:
1) The signal you received:
a) the secret word*,
b) an SSTV image, or,
c) telemetry data
2) Your name or group name
3) The date/time of reception
4) Your e-mail address of where to send your certificate.
You will receive a PDF certificate via email.
Here are the e-mail boxes to send your reports:
Secret word* contest to: secretword@arissat1.org
SSTV image to: sstvreport@arissat1.org
Telemetry data to: tlmreport@arissat1.org
(either digital or voice report of the data you received)
Received BPSK telemetry and .CSV files should continue to be
sent to: telemetry@arissattlm.org.
* Those who do hear the secret word or call sign please do not put
it out to the world. That would ruin the contest for those still
waiting for their station to be in range.
You can find the details of the ARISSat-1/KEDR radio frequencies,
