Subj: UO-11 Operations Notice
Returning UO-11 to normal operations is taking longer than
anticipated following the problems experienced with the FORTH
DIARY running for the first time on the On Board Computer. The
OBC is sending null (80H) characters to the 145.825 MHz
downlink at 1200 bps and operators at UoS have been working to
restore the OBC software using the UHF uplink, but without
success - thus far.
Sorry for this interruption to UO-11 operations, we are doing
our best to restore normality but it looks as though it may
take us a while.
In the meantime, Craig Underwood has been using the UO-11
downlink to assemble statistics on the BER to assist in the
design of UoSAT-C!

Subj: UO-9 Operations Notice
Following a request from Leonid Labutin, UA3CR, the published
UoSAT-1 schedule has been changed to support continuous
DIGITALKER transmissions on 145.825 MHz NBFM during training
in Canada for the Trans-Polar Ski Trek due to take place early
next year. UO-9 will be transmitting synthesised speech
telemetry until 101287.
Whilst it is anticipated that the support for this expedition
will use the UO-11 DIGITALKER, UO-9 is being used whilst
problems with the UO-11 OBC software are being resolved.
Reception reports would be welcome.
