ARLS003 Amateurs Asked to Listen for HORYU-2 Satellite

The Japanese HORYU-2 research satellite was launched May 17 at 1639
UTC as part of a mission that included the JAXA climate observation
satellite Shizuku.

HORYU-2 was built by students at the Kyushu Institute of Technology
(KIT) and it carries the call sign JG6YBW. The satellite will
conduct a variety of experiments including high-voltage power
generation and space debris measurements.

Amateurs have been asked to monitor HORYU-2's Morse code and
1200-baud AX.25 packet telemetry at 437.375 MHz. Telemetry decoding
software is available for downloading from KIT and hams are
encouraged to submit reports. Details can be found at,
