Aditya-L1 (will be Orbiting L1 point)

Aditya L1

Aditya L1 shall be the first space based Indian mission to study the Sun. The spacecraft shall be placed in a halo orbit around the Lagrange point 1 (L1) of the Sun-Earth system

This plot was when still in Earth orbit at about 37000km on 8482.32MHz +/- doppler.

It also had +/-500kHz sidebands a few minutes before this capture.

1.2m dish, LO 9GHz

TLEs updated and now with correct name.

Locked to ground, 8482.32 change modulation and 8497.5 came on with modulation as in previous post.

I could not see any activity in the other allocations which are all wider bandwidth (8475M, 8489.91M & 8460M)

500kHz sidebands yesterday on 8497.5MHz

Locking to ground station on 8482.32MHz

Now at about 70000km, ephemeris data on NASA Horizons ref -156

I caught it testing on 8460MHz with an 8MHz wide signal. Spectrum shows level variations.

9GHz LO 1.2m dish
