Launched: October 30, 1998 
 
Status: Telemetry downloads only 
 
Uplink/downlink frequency (listed on the PanSat web site) 436.500 MHz 
 
The satellite is not available for general uplink transmissions. 
 
The Naval Postgraduate School developed PanSat. At the time of 
launch, PanSat spread-spectrum digital transponders were to 
be available to Amateur Radio operators along with software to utilize 
this technology. 
 
The satellite is still operating, however, the spread spectrum packet 
radio portion never took place. The spacecraft is now beyond it's 
initial 2-year mission life, but telemetry records are still being 
downloaded.

Uplink 435.275 1200-baud AFSK 
Downlink 145.825 9600-baud FSK 
(optional voice message) 
Broadcast callsign: DP0AIS 
 
AO-49 (SAFIR-M) is a German amateur radio payload onboard the small German 
scientific satellite "RUBIN-2". 
 
AO-49 was built by the German amateur radio association "AATiS 
e.V." (German 
acronym for "Arbeitskreis Amateurfunk und Telekommunikation in der Schule", 
which means: 'working group for amateur radio anand telecommunications in 
schools'). AO-49 is designed as a "store and broadcast" system for APRS 
based messages, dedicated for the use of schools in combination with the 
existing WX-Net and planned buoy experiments in Germany. 
 
No transmissions detected since the 1st of February 2003! It appears 
AO-49 is not properly aligned to illuminate the solar panels. This 
should end soon. Due to its orbit, AO-49 will be in a phase without 
eclipses until 13Feb03. 
 
Martin DG8UAU has written a small software program "SAFIR-M Decoder" to 
allow decoding of the received DATA0 frames. It is available at: 
http://amend.gmxhome.de in the section Aktuelles. 
 
Details on AO-49 (SAFIR-M) can be found at:
