Over a year and a half after launch, SO-120 (URESAT-1) has finally deployed
its antennas! Jan, PE0SAT, discovered the signal of SO-120 on January 28th
and telemetry confirmed that the satellite was showing that the antennas
were deployed. SO-120 was launched on June 12, 2023.
On January 31st, AMSAT-EA managed to activate the FM repeater of URESAT-1
(SO-120) but in its secondary uplink frequency of 145.925 MHz. No subtone
required. Downlink working well on 436.888 MHz.
VHF antenna seems not fully deployed as it can be seen in the SSTV images
received are showing just a yellow color, which is the VHF antenna over the
camera lens. SSTV images are transmitted in Robot36.
As the VHF antenna is not fully deployed, the FM repeater requires a strong
uplink signal to break the squelch.
The satellite also can play chess. AMSAT-EA will send chess moves suggested
via @AmsatSpain on X https://x.com/amsatspain. Help is requested
receiving the chess telemetry.
