[amsat-bb] Fajr downlink in 70 cm band

[Nico Janssen]

All,

The Iranian satellite Fajr (i.e. 'Dawn') was launched on 2015-02-02 just
before 09:00 UTC from Semnan launch center with a Safir rocket. The
50 kg satellite (40387, 2015-006A), Iran's fourth satellite, has a
cold gas thruster, so it can change its orbit. It carries a camera for
earth observations. It should have a telemetry downlink on 437.538 MHz
and a command uplink in the 2 m band.

73,
