ARLA/CLUSTER: India lança satelites para radioamadores

[João Gonçalves Costa]

Launch of Indian Amateur Radio satellites

Amateur Radio satellites SRMSAT and Jugnu launched today, Wednesday, Oct 12 at 05:30 UT and radio hams are asked to send in reception reports.

These satellites are being launched into a 20 degree inclination orbit so will not be receiveable in high latitude countries such as the United Kingdom. See

On the AMSAT bulletin board Mani, VU2WMY, writes

I'm herewith forwarding the mail from Mr. Shantanu Agarwal, Team Lead for the 'Jugnu', requesting the Global Amateur Radio fraternity to provide the CW Beacon signal Report along with the plain decoded morse message, if possible.

Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated, as this would be very helpful to evaluate various on-board system performance.

'Jugnu' beacon is at 437.275 MHz, OOK.

The reports can be sent to the following mail ID.s
wmy  isac.gov.in
shantag  iitk.ac.in

The predicted TLE's:
