[amsat-bb] UKube-1 Transponder Schedule

The FUNcube-2 telemetry beacon is also on and very strong. It has been
on continuously since yesterday. I've worked it on both day and night
passes.

There was what appeared to be a reset on the first pass this afternoon
where the transponder switched off midpass for a few seconds.

In addition, the CW beacon from the satellite's primary transceiver
desenses the transponder uplink for about 20 seconds or so when it's
transmitting.

The uplink offset appears to be anywhere from +12 - +15 kHz from published.

73,

Paul, N8HM
