Tevel Mission to Launch on SpaceX Transporter-3 Mission January 13th

The Tevel mission consisting of 8 satellites developed by the Herzliya
Science Center in Israel, each carrying an FM transponder, is expected to launch on January 13 at 15:25 GMT on the SpaceX Falcon-9 Transporter-3
mission. This mission also carries AMSAT-EA's EASAT-2 and HADES satellites.

Tevel-1, Tevel-2 ….Tevel-8

Beacon transmissions on 436.400 MHz, (9600bps BPSK G3RUH)
FM transponders uplink frequency: 145.970 MHz|
FM transponders downlink frequency: 436.400 MHz

All 8 satellites will have the same frequencies, so as long as the
footprints are overlapping, only one FM transponder will be activated. The satellites were built by 8 schools in different parts of Israel.
