September 19 Multiple Amateur Radio Satellite Launch From China
Alan Kung, BA1DU, provided China AMSAT's (CAMSAT) frequency and mode
information for the September 19 launch of mulitple satellites on Beijing's
new Chang Zheng 6 (CZ-6) rocket from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center.
Estimated early Keplerian elements for a September 19 launch are:
XW-2(CAS-3)
1 99999U 15262.96885748 .00004985 00000-0 28395-3 0 00005
2 99999 097.4712 270.8252 0010383 266.0522 270.6644 15.12847565000015
Launch time was planned for 23:00:00 UTC on 2015-09-18 with deployment of
the satellites at 23:15:14 UTC. Technical difficulties postponed the launch
until 23:00:00 UTC on 2015-09-19.

The XW-2A through XW-2F satellites are using the same type of antenna. These
are quarter wavelength deployable monopole whip antennas and made of steel
tape, including a UHF uplink antenna and a VHF downlink antenna for each
satellite.
