/////////////////////////////////////////// ESA announce competition for radio hams Posted: 22 Apr 2016 11:58 AM PDT https://amsat-uk.org/2016/04/22/esa-...or-radio-hams/ The European Space Agency (ESA) Education Office will give a prize to the first three radio amateurs to send a recorded signal from either the AAUSAT4, E-st@r-II or OUFTI-1 CubeSats which are expected to launch Saturday, April 23 at 2102 UT. The launch of the three CubeSats on a Russian Soyuz-STA Fregat-M rocket from Kourou in South America had been planned for Friday but was postponed 24 hours due to poor weather. Soon after being deployed into their final orbit, the CubeSats will begin transmitting signals to Earth that can be picked up by anyone with common amateur radio equipment. ESA challenges anyone to record the signal and send it to , and to the CubeSat team. For each CubeSat, the first email received for which the signal is confirmed to belong to the CubeSat will be awarded with the following prizes: • ESA Fly Your Satellite! poster • ESA Education goodie bag • Scale 1:1 3D printed model of a CubeSat Full details and frequency information are available at http://www.esa.int/Education/CubeSat...te!_from_space D-STAR satellite to launch from Kourou https://amsat-uk.org/2016/04/05/d-st...h-from-kourou/ |
