Transmitting from the QRL roof:

After trying it over a distance of 4km and failing, I moved a bit closer…
OK, its not a record breaking distance ;)

Martijns antennas can be seen from the garden of Terence, PD3T. I set up my gear in the garden:

And the signal as received by Martijn:

QSO made in DVB-S on 1255MHz with 2Msymb/s and 1/2 FEC

Sure, if its APRS on 70cm!

Decoded somewhere between Ypenburg and Den Haag, on a nightly bike ride home.

I am attending the AMSAT-UK Colloquium, streaming live!

First screenshot by Terence PD3T, first frames uploaded by DK3WN.

The following people have uploaded data of the first pass:

dk3wn, OO1A, F-60429, G0PGL, G4GUO, pd3t, M0LTC

Terence provided the below screenshot, made with the FUNcube dashboard that does not support FUNcube-2 yet. Please do not look at the telemetry, but notice the satellite ID in the bottom left corner. The Dashboard will upload the data to the warehouse correctly.

QB50p2 has been set into 2k4 mode during the pass over Delft, and was switched back to 1k2 just before LOS.

QB50p1 and p2 in AX.25 BPSK, NCBR-1 in CW mode

The launch of 33 spacecraft, of which 21 were launched by ISL, was successfully performed at 19:11:11 UTC on 19th of June.

On the first pass over Delft, the two QB50 Precursor satellites were detected, and the brazilian NCBR-1.

Please find two recordings of the precursor CW beacons below:

The satellites have been switched to nominal mode to verify health, but may be left in safe mode as well.

Frequencies:
QB50p1 downlink frequency: 145.815 MHz
QB50p2 downlink frequency: 145.880 MHz

QB50p1 contains the AMSAT-NL FUNcube transponder I designed, as well as the FUNcube PA board designed and built by AMSAT-UKs David Bowman G0MRF.

EDIT: added screenshot of signals received on the 17th orbit
