CUSat Paul Jackson 17June 2013 Dear Paul Thank you for the revised coordination request. I have discussed your request with the advisory panel. The coordinated frequency is as requested Uplink/Downlink 437.405 MHz The above frequencies have been coordinated with the understanding that you have agreed to the IARU terms of reference for the use of amateur service spectrum for experimental purpose. You have indicated the launch date as 9 July 2013. Please advise us of any changes in the launch date. Although we have avoided coordinating frequencies which have already be coordinated for other known satellites on the same mission, it remains your responsibility to check for any possible conflict and advise us accordingly Please also confirm the name and full contact details of the person who will control the operation of CUSat after launch. Please note that all frequencies in the amateur satellite service are shared frequencies. We have attempted to make the best possible selection for your project. We have noted the measures taken in controlling the satellite. We however draw your attention to the attached paper “controlling satellites” which sets out the requirements as per ITU regulations. In section 4C you indicated that the person commanding the satellite will use his/her own callsign. Please note that as CUSat is licensed as experimental this is not appropriate. Please check with the FCC what the requirements are Best wishes for a successful project. Please keep us informed of progress Hans ZS6AKV Hans van de Groenendaal IARU Satellite Adviser IARU Satellite Adviser: Hans van de Groenendaal ZS6AKV P O Box 90438, Garsfontein 0042 South Africa Email: hans@intekom.co.za Visit www.iaru.org/satellite for guidelines and important information
