ARLS002 Eight-Satellite TEVEL Mission to Launch on January 13

The TEVEL mission, which consists of eight satellites carrying
amateur radio FM transponders, is set to launch on January 13 at
1525 UTC on the SpaceX Falcon 9 Transporter-3 mission, which also
carries AMSAT-Spain's (AMSAT-EA) EASAT-2 and HADES satellites.
(Please see 2022 Space Bulletin ARLS001 for more information about
the AMSAT-EA satellites.)
 
The TEVEL satellites were developed by the Herzliya Science Center
in Israel.

All eight satellites will use the same frequencies, as long as their
footprints overlap, and only one FM transponder will be activated at
a time. Beacon transmissions will be on 436.400 MHz (9,600 bps
BPSK). The uplink frequency of the FM transponders is 145.970 MHz,
and the downlink frequency is 436.400 MHz. The satellites were built
by eight schools in different parts of Israel.
