Hi all,

YES2 is having some problems and is probably still in orbit.

The TLE should be similar to Foton-M3, but if anything is a little
BEHIND this one:

FOTON-M3
1 32058U 07040A   07268.43934284  .00034557  00000-0  56812-4 0    03
2 32058  62.9324 147.8286 0015961  52.7201 307.5403 16.02282082  1776

They are transmitting on 437.000MHz (yes, exactly that).

Please, if you can track that TLE, correct for doppler, and record the
audio at at least 44KHz it would be GREATLY aprpeciated by the YES2 team.

You should be able to see the signal... but the batteries will only last
another 4 hours or so: scramble, scramble!

Any updates here!

Cheers,

N
