I caught Arrisat 1 on a nearly overhead pass this last week. I used my trusty Kenwood HT, an arrow antenna, and a small camera with a video record option. (a cell phone with video works also) Go to the Amsat web site put in your location and you can get up to the next 50 passes for your location.
This worked really well. I got an SSTV image, the voice telemetry, and the secret password in one of the 24 different language greetings.
Here is one of the certificates for sending in a report. That's all there is to it , simple easy.
