Dear HAMSAT VO-52 users,
The commands to 'Turn On' the transponder # 2 (Dutch transponder, made 
by Williams PE1RAH) on-board HAMSAT VO-52 was successfully sent during 
14:00 UT 35 deg ascending Node pass over Bangalore, India.

The sent commands were successfully received, acknowledged and 
confirmed by the telemetry. Subsequently, the transponder # 2 is now 
'ON' and Williams CW message beacon was heard again after a gap of 
approximately 6 years & 4 months.

The beacon signal was heard loud and strong here at Bangalore.

A detailed Initial reports addressed to:
tprangan at istrac.org
and a copy to

would be greatly appreciated.
