Last weekend we were able to activate the APRS digipeater on board SONATE-2 for the first time. The APRS digipeater is used for automatic data packets relay within the packet radio network of the ham radio community. A total of 421 data packets were forwarded during the operating time from 26.07.2024 16:00 to 29.07.2024 00:00. The SONATE-2 mission was thus able to make a further contribution to amateur radio worldwide.
