Status

TIsat-1 is still performing well after 8 years life in space. Due to some thermal issue (the reason of this is not clear yet) TIsat-1 is downloading data on the southern hemisphere. On the northern hemisphere we have beacon signals.

CW Decoding table for TIsat-1 early beacon messages

During the early days of TIsat-1 mission, the beacon send continuously during the day the message “HI HI HI TISAT” followed by a Morse character indicating the temperature of the transmitter. The beacon is turned off during eclipse to avoid stress of the batteries. This message is repeated each 15s and is encoded with 17 WPM. The radio used as beacon has been developped completely in SUPSI with the help of local HAMs. The following table allows to translate the last character of the message into the relative temperature expressed in Celsius degrees.<(p>
