ARISSat1

ARISSat1 Will not deploy until July 2011

I have been anxiously waiting for the next  launch of ARISSat1 formerly know as SUIT Sat . After working every orbit of the first SUIT Sat in February of 2006 I now have to wait a little longer! The most exciting time of my life as an amateur radio operator was receiving all the transmissions from the badly disabled Suit Sat and decoding the secret words and SSTV picture from the spinning satellite. Hopefully when this new satelite is launched in July 2011 everyone will get the opportunity to receive the weak signals from it.

Please click this link to read and hear the many reports I received along with a few others of the first SUIT Sat

More information and an overview of the new satellite at this link.

For the latest information and news please see the link below.
