   Jean Guérard, from the french national aerospace research centre 
ONERA, is requesting to all who as the opportunity, please, to record 
the last telemetry frames of the bird launched in May 2017 by the 
polytechnic school (in Palaiseau, France).
   X-Cubesat is expected to decay around Mon, 04/02/2019 10:58:00 +/- 7 
hours UTC (these predictions are provided by Joseph Remis, expert in 
satellite reentry predictions from the International Astronomical Center).
   The frequency is 437.020 MHz (measured here 437.01792), modulation 
AFSK 1k2, mode AX25. Warning, the fresh tle are already not too good, 
but anyways...

   Please, send information directly to Jean Guérard, 
jean.guerard at saf-astronomie.fr

   Many thanks my friends, have a good Sunday, 73 !
