Luc,

>>A bit confused here is it ARISSat-1 or Kedr?

Yes.  :)  Also RadioSkaf-V.  They all refer to the same thing.

A bit confused here is it ARISSat-1 or Kedr?

"satellite Kedr was accommodated in the vehicle cargo compartment on January
18"

"Its name is accepted by call sign Kedr of the first cosmonaut of the Earth
- our compatriot Yu.A. Gagarin. Yu.A. Gagarin had this call 
sign when he performed his flight onboard manned spacecraft Vostok."



Thank's for any precision!
