A few days ago two Chinese satellites were launched and placed in orbit
around the Moon. But the Chinese might have lost touch with these
"birds".
If you have a 432 beam just point it at the Moon and listen……………………….
Help Requested to Monitor for Signals From Chinese Lunar Satellites
After their launch on 2018-05-20 at 21:28 UTC, LJ 1 and LJ 2 were
maneuvered onto a track to the Moon. Several amateurs received
telemetry from the satellites. But now LJ 1 appears to encounter
problems.
Quoting Wei BG2BHC:
"Can you help to find amateurs in the US to help to monitor DSLWP-A
On 435.425 and 436.425 now? We lost the contact of satellite A on S
band after
An orbit adjustment. We just tried to switch on UHF, but we don't know
if it
works or not.
If operating, 435.425 MHz should be 500bps GMSK and JT4 alternately.
436.425 MHz should be 250 bps GMSK. Both transmit once in 5 minutes.
