Launched 20 December 2002
Status: Operational
SO-50 carries several experiments, including a mode J FM amateur repeater experiment operating on 145.850 MHz uplink and 436.800 MHz downlink. SO-50 is operational for 10 minutes when turned on by the following procedure:
1) Transmit for 1-2 seconds on 145.850 MHz with a tone of 74.4 Hz to arm the 10 minute timer on board the spacecraft.
2) Next transmit on 145.850 MHz (FM Voice) using 67.0 Hz to key the repeater on and off within the 10 Minute window.
Note: Sending the 74.4 tone again within the 10 minute window will reset the 10 minute timer.
