Four months in orbit: radio amateurs in touch

By now, our Geoscan-Edelveis CubeSat has been operating normally in Earth orbit for four months, receiving commands and transmitting data to the Geoscan ground station. We are always happy when signals from the satellite are received not only by our operators and designers, but also by radio amateurs in different parts of our country and around the world.

Two weeks have passed since our satellite Geoscan-Edelveis went into orbit. On the first day of its flight our team established communication with it, sent signals in order to collect information from the sensors, and received the answers. The spacecraft is in orbit inclined at 97° at the altitude of 458х494 km and works within the amateur radio range at 436,2 MHz (its call sign is RS20S).
