CubeSats carrying amateur radio payloads were among the 31 satellites successfully launched on January 12 at 0359 UT on an Indian ISRO PSLV rocket.<\/p>\n

Two of the CubeSats, Fox-1D and PicSat, carry amateur radio FM transponders, but neither is yet available for general amateur use. The PicSat FM transponder is unusual in that\u00a0instead of a CTCSS tone it requires a 1750 Hz tone burst to activate it. The 1750 Hz tone burst used to be popular on IARU Region 1 FM repeaters in the 1980s and 90s before the widespread use of CTCSS.<\/p>\n

CNUSail-1, built by students at the Chungnam National University in Korea, carries a deployable sail. The students have requested the help of radio amateurs in receiving the 437.100 MHz beacon, further information is available at https:\/\/sites.google.com\/view\/cnuusg<\/a><\/p>\n

JE9PEL<\/strong><\/a> lists these frequencies for the satellites carrying amateur radio payloads:<\/p>\n

Madhu A65DE<\/strong> also copied Fox-1D from Fujairah, North of Dubai.<\/p>\n
AMSAT North America has issued a statement formally designating Fox-1D as AO-92:<\/p>\n
Fox-1D, a 1U CubeSat, is the third of AMSAT\u2019s five Fox-1 CubeSats to reach orbit, being preceded by AO-85 (Fox-1A) and AO-91 (RadFxSat \/ Fox-1B). Fox-1D carries the Fox-1 U\/v FM transponder, with an uplink of 435.350 MHz (67.0 Hz CTCSS) and a downlink of 145.880 MHz. In addition, Fox-1D carries several university experiments, including a MEMS gyro from Pennsylvania State University \u2013 Erie, a camera from Virginia Tech, and the University of Iowa\u2019s HERCI (High Energy Radiation CubeSat Instrument) radiation mapping experiment. Fox-1D also carries the AMSAT L-Band Downshifter experiment which enables the FM transponder to be switched to utilize an uplink of 1267.350 MHz (67.0 Hz CTCSS).<\/em><\/p>\n
Fox-1D was sent aloft as a secondary payload on the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO)\u2019s PSLV-XL rocket as part of the PSLV-C40 mission. Fox-1D was one of thirty-one satellites successfully deployed on this launch.<\/em><\/p>\n
Since Fox-1D has met all of the qualifications necessary to receive an OSCAR number, I, by the authority vested in me by the AMSAT President, do hereby confer on this satellite the designation AMSAT-OSCAR 92 or AO-92. I join amateur radio operators in the U.S. and around the world in wishing AO-92 a long and successful life in both its amateur and scientific missions.<\/em><\/p>\n
I, along with the rest of the amateur community, congratulate all of the volunteers who worked so diligently to construct, test and prepare for launch the newest amateur radio satellite.<\/em><\/p>\n
