ARLS011 RadFxSat (Fox-1B) FM Satellite Set to Launch in November

The next AMSAT Fox-1 satellite, RadFxSat (Fox-1B), is scheduled to launch on
November 10 at 0947 UTC. RadFxSat (Fox-1B), which will carry a 435/145 MHz FM
transponder, is one of four CubeSats making up the NASA ELaNa XIV mission,
riding as secondary payloads aboard the Joint Polar Satellite System-1 (JPSS-1)
mission. JPSS-1 will launch on a Delta II vehicle from Vandenberg Air Force
Base, California.

Information on ElaNa can be found at, https://www.nasa.gov/content/about-elana
.

RadFxSat is a partnership with Vanderbilt University Institute for Space and
Defense Electronics (ISDE) and hosts four payloads for the study of radiation
effects on commercial off-the-shelf components. It will carry a Fox-1 style FM
U/V repeater with an uplink on 435.250 MHz (67.0 Hz CTCSS) and a downlink on
145.960 MHz. Satellite and experiment telemetry will be downlinked via the DUV
subaudible telemetry stream, which can be decoded using FoxTelem software.

The FoxTelem software can be downloaded from,
