The CubeSatSim Lite is available again on the AMSAT Store!

This open source hardware and software project runs on a Raspberry Pi Zero 2W and transmits realistic satellite telemetry in the 70cm ham radio band.

I really enjoying developing this STEM educational project!

Große Ehre für Peter Gülzow, DB2OS! 🛰️📻

Die Space.Table-Redaktion hat ihn in die „Top 100 der Raumfahrt-Szene 2025/26“ gewählt. In der Kategorie Verbände zählt der Präsident der AMSAT-DL damit zu den 10 prägendsten Köpfen der Branche.

Besonders gewürdigt wird sein jahrzehntelanges Engagement, das unter anderem den ersten geostationären Amateurfunk-Transponder QO-100 ermöglichte. Ein Meilenstein für die internationale Community!

Herzlichen Glückwunsch, Peter! 👏

After a successful @ARISS_Intl contact with KJ5GEW, the radio team wanted to encourage our school champion to keep going on his ham radio journey. So we got him a copy of @kb6nu's No Nonsense Tech exam study guide! Also threw in a spare Baofeng tribander.

Since we all signed the book for him, he can't just give it away. Plus he has a deadline now. 😄

Weekend projects. Setting up a small 76cm dish for easier portable use (than my 1.2m behemoth). Alignment on a Ku band geostationary satellite beacon (Galaxy 18), and now working on a printed bracket for the W1GHZ 10/24 GHz feed horn.
