Introducing #RadioWednesdays at FWCube Labs! Did you know the Earth has a heartbeat? It "vibrates" at a constant low frequency of 7.83 Hz. This is the Schumann Resonance—a natural global radio wave created by lightning. ⚡🌍 Let's explore how it works. 👇
Card-Sat V0 is done! This is a business-card sized satellite.
Many lessons learned here. At ~$80/sat I was north of beating $50SAT out for the title of cheapest satellite but at least I got to learn to make custom radios, solar panels etc.
Next up: deployment & comms tests
Yesterday was incredible! 🚀 Our first public presentation exceeded all expectations. Seeing ham radio veterans and newcomers united by that pure passion to experiment and tinker was truly inspiring.
Thank you all for joining us! 73 from the FWCUBE LABS team 📻📡
Preparing holiday style trip to JO33 / #POTA DE-0356 / #IOTA EU-047 from THU to SUN. Let me know if any of these is needed. Ultra light FM SAT equipment only. #amsat#hamradio

Some portable tests today with Quad yagi from @fwcubelabs Tested with and without LNA. Unfortunately my backyard is not the best test site with lot of surrounding buildings. #amsat
Quite funny afternoon with the little dish and the portable devices.
TBH for aprox 4W for uplink I could heard myself as S7-S8 which is fantastic.
Thinking to play this weekend over IN71, anyone need that grid in QO-100?
PSE share!
🚨 BREAKING: Someone just open-sourced a full suite for tracking satellites and decoding their radio signals locally.
You don't even need the internet. It uses an SDR to pull weather images and raw data straight from space to your hard drive.
100% Open Source.
