ARLS010 Chinese CAS-4A and CAS-4B Amateur Radio Satellite Transponders 
Activated

The Amateur Radio linear (SSB/CW) inverting transponders on the CAS-4A and 
CAS-4B satellites were activated on October 18. CAMSAT's Amateur Radio payloads 
piggybacked on the optical remote-sensing
micro-satellites OVS-1A (CAS-4A) and OVS-1B (CAS-4B), launched on June 15.

CAS-4A (call sign BJ1SK) has a CW telemetry beacon on 144.855 MHz, and 4.8 kB 
GMSK telemetry on 145.835 MHz. The uplink is 435.220 MHz, the downlink is 
145.870 MHz (20-kHz passband).

CAS-4B (call sign BJ1SL) has a CW telemetry beacon on 145.910 MHz, and 4.8 kB 
GMSK telemetry at 145.890 MHz. The uplink is 435.280 MHz, the downlink is 
145.925 MHz (20-kHz passband).
