About
The Data Receiving and Satellites Controlling Station provides two-way communication with small spacecraft per amateur radio regulations. It combines a rotating high-gain directional antenna (435–438 MHz) with two fixed survey antennas (136–146 MHz and 435–438 MHz at 9600 bps). Transmitter output power ≥4 W, supporting AX.25 protocol with FSK modulation. Based on software-defined radio technology. Equipped with a web camera for rotating antenna monitoring. Released in 2018 with 1-year service life and 3-month delivery. Not customizable.
