ISRO PSLV-C37 Launch<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The Indian Space Agency ISRO successfully launched the amateur radio satellite Nayif-1 along with 103 other satellites, a record for a single launch. The PSLV-C37 lifted off from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre, Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh at 03:58 UT on Wednesday, February 15, 2017.<\/p>\n

Nayif-1 started transmitting about an hour after launch and radio amateurs in the west of the USA reported the first signals. The first frame of data received at the Data Warehouse<\/a> was from Christy Hunter KB6LTY.<\/strong> Telemetry data was also received by WA6FWF, KA7FVV, WC7V, NC7V, K6FW, KE7QPV, WA9ONY, W5PFG, KK6AYK.<\/p>\n

Ken Eaton GW1FKY<\/strong> reports he received his first frames of data when the satellite came in range of the UK at 10:07 UT.<\/p>\n

Nayif-1 has been developed by the Mohammed bin Rashid Space Centre (MBRSC) and American University of Sharjah (AUS). The UAE\u2019s first Nanosatellite was developed by Emirati engineering students from AUS under the supervision of a team of engineers and specialists from MBRSC within the framework of a partnership between the two entities, aiming to provide hands-on experience to engineering students on satellite manufacturing.<\/p>\n

The spacecraft includes a U\/V linear transponder and telemetry transmitter. It employs enhanced oscillator circuitry and includes an active attitude determination and control system.<\/p>\n

\"Nayif-1<\/a>Initial operations of the spacecraft will be in a low power \u201csafe\u201d mode where only the telemetry transmitter is activated.<\/p>\n

The operating frequencies for the spacecraft will be:<\/p>\n

Telemetry<\/strong>
\n145.940 MHz using 1k2 BPSK to the FUNcube standard.<\/p>\n

SSB\/CW Transponder<\/strong>
\nUplink on 435.045 \u2013 435.015 MHz
\nDownlink on 145.960 \u2013 145.990 MHz<\/p>\n
