SO-50 SAUDISAT-1C
Catalog number: 27607
Launched: December 20, 2002

Status: Operational.

Uplink:   145.850 MHz (67.0 Hz PL tone) (See below for operating
procedures)
Downlink: 436.795 MHz

Mode and Antenna Polarization:
V: Linear
U: Linear

Official Webpage: http://saudisat.kacst.edu.sa/index.shtml
(not up and running currently)

To switch the transmitter on, you need to send a CTCSS tone of 74.4 Hz.
The order of operation is thus: (allow for Doppler as necessary)
1) Transmit on 145.850 MHz with a tone of 74.4 Hz to arm the 10 minute
   timer on board the spacecraft.
2) Now transmit on 145.850 MHz (FM Voice) using 67.0 Hz to PT the
   repeater on and off within the 10 Minute window.
3) Sending the 74.4 tone again within the 10 minute window will reset
   the 10 minute timer.

This off the AO-27 website:
For the last 5 weeks ground controllers have been trying to contact
AO-27. At this point we have not been able to turn it on. We still have
a few tricks that we are planning on trying but these take time. We are
hoping that we can re-establish communications.

At this time, we don't have an estimate for when AO-27 will be back on
the air.

AO-27 is now in its 14th year on orbit. We will continue to try to
recover AO-27 until we run out of ideas.
