Catalog number: 26931
Launch Date: September 30, 2001
Status: Operational

PCSat is a 1200-baud APRS digipeater designed for use by stations using
hand-held or mobile transceivers. Downlinks feed a central web site at:
http://pcsat.aprs.org
The APRS-equipped PCSat was built by midshipmen from the U.S. Naval Academy
under the guidance of Bob Bruninga, WB4APR.
Bob WB4APR reports on November 09,2004:
PCsat working fine.
As a testament to the success of our new PCsat battery
isolation strategy, I captured telemetry this morning at 0446 local
showing the the A side battery was down to 1.15 V per cell
while the B side battery was at a healthy 12.2 volts per cell.
This was 34 minutes into eclipse with only seconds to go
before it re-entered sunshine.
PCsat is staying alive now because the isolated B side
remembers the low-power mode configuration mode even
if the A side runs down and resets. Please do not use PCsat
in the dark, and she should live a long time....
