ExseedSat ham radio FM transponder satellite

The Hindu interviews radio amateur *Gurudatta Panda VU3GDP* about the
ExseedSat CubeSat built by an eight-person team at Hyderabad-based Exseed
Space Private Limited co-founded by *Ashhar Farhan VU2ESE*

ExseedSat carries an amateur radio FM transponder and APRS digipeater and
is expected to be launched by SpaceX towards the end of 2018.

“This satellite will serve the ham or the amateur radio community. As a
result, it will be of great help during natural calamities, when
conventional communication services get disrupted,� Gurudatta Panda VU3GDP
said.

After the launch, this artificial satellite will be on a polar orbit with
two passes over India everyday. The public will be able to receive this
artificial satellite’s beacon on 145.900 MHz FM using a TV tuner and USB
dongle, Mr. Panda added.

He said the eight-member team involved in construction of the small private
satellite involved four technocrats and four managerial staff members.

He and Exseed Space co-founder Ashhar Farhan VU2ESE were the communication
engineers who played a key role in building the satellite.
