Listened on the 2030z pass from DM33. Nothing heard. Granted it was a low (7
deg Pass). Next pass not until tomorrow will listen again if time permits.

Hello all!
As camera and downlink on 435.354MHz operates smoothly, we have commanded
the camera to take picture and store it into memory every 10minutes, this
mode should last from now for 7 days or at least to next commanding session
on Monday. The transmitting counter, which selects picture for downlink is
not sychronized with the camera, so there is uncertain delay between
acquiring a picture and its transmission of max. 
64minutes. Every picture will be downlinked just once so every reception
counts. Of course downlink is not operating during eclipse.

Further info on https://github.com/alpov/PSAT-2/blob/master/README.md

               Enjoy the experimenting!

                                  Ales OK2ALP and Tomas OK2PNQ
