[amsat-bb] Re: Response to my request of information about EduSat from GAUSS team in Rome: Re: [CubeSat] Edusat operative or failure

[Trevor .]

Yes I also understand that it is not an Amateur Satellite but an Educational Satellite operating with an experimental license on 435.750 MHz.

The website at 
http://www.gaussteam.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=94:edusat-english-version&catid=35:edusa&Itemid=195 

Appears to list an Uplink as being in 145 MHz. I do not know if the command uplink station in Rome is operating in 145 MHz using an Amateur or Experimental license.
