Freeman, N5FPP reports:
Wow, AO-7 on the 0421-0441 pass over DM65 sounded great in mode B. I
listened to the group chatting whole pass with a 5x5 until it went below
the horizon. In my opinion AO-7 is one of the "easy-sats".
Emily, W0EEC has created a website to allow the users of AO-7 to record
contacts, observations and use of the satellite more effectively at:
http://www.emilyshouse.com/experthams/ao7/main.php
This includes the ability to log contacts.
Tim, K3TZ has written a program to decode AO-07 telemetry.
The program can be downloaded at:

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
There have been unconfirmed reports on the amsat-bb remailer that So-50 has
shifted downlink frequency as much as 5khz up. This both from Europe.
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.

(optional voice message)
Broadcast callsign: DP0AIS
AO-49 (SAFIR-M) is a German amateur radio payload onboard the small German
scientific satellite "RUBIN-2".
AO-49 was built by the German amateur radio association "AATiS e.V." (German
acronym for "Arbeitskreis Amateurfunk und Telekommunikation in der Schule",
which means: 'working group for amateur radio anand telecommunications in
schools'). AO-49 is designed as a "store and broadcast" system for APRS
based messages, dedicated for the use of schools in combination with the
existing WX-Net and planned buoy experiments in Germany.
No transmissions detected since the 1st of February 2003! It appears
AO-49 is not properly aligned to illuminate the solar panels. This
should end soon. Due to its orbit, AO-49 will be in a phase without
eclipses until 13Feb03.
Martin DG8UAU has written a small software program "SAFIR-M Decoder" to
allow decoding of the received DATA0 frames. It is available at:
http://amend.gmxhome.de in the section Aktuelles.
