Hi Mineo,

Thank you for your report. We have noticed the same thing and it looks
like the transmissions are intermittent for some reason at this point,
since we did observe the CW beacons earlier this week. The beacon is not
tied to passes over our ground station.

Have a good weekend,
Many thanks on behalf of the operations team,

[UWE-3 News: Awaiting UWE-4] http://www.dk3wn.info/p/?p=91077

Since 21st of November 2013 UWE-3 performs very well in space and is
celebrating its 5th birthday in orbit today. Day by day we're receiving
 great support from the Radio Amateur Community from all over the world.
We'd like to thank you all very much for your great support over the
past five years! Besides many others we'd like to send our warm greetings
especially to JA6PL and G7GQW. Both of you supporting us day by day with
beacons which report the good health condition of UWE-3, including the
nominal status of the batteries.

But wait - there's more to come: UWE-3 is awaiting UWE-4 in space!
Presumably on the 25th of December 2018 UWE-4 will be launched from
Vostochny Cosmodrome, Russia. The picture shows UWE-4 shortly before the
transportation to the launch side. The main mission of UWE-4 will be
the in-orbit demonstration of a miniaturized NanoFEEP propulsion system
which is a novel technology provided by the University of Dresden.
You can recognize these thrusters mounted in the end of the rails so
the panel itself still can generate solar power.

UWE-4 with Thrusters, Neutralizer and a new kind of sun sensors on each
panel. You will receive more details about the launch as soon as we can
provide them. Stay tuned for updates in the next weeks ...

朝、ひと仕事をした。430-アンテナを進行方向に対して 90度回転して起こした。
ネジが錆び付いていたが､KURE-556 は強力だ。回転の目的は、図を見ると明らか
だろう。交差するブームとの位置関係を見てほしい。これで受信性能が少しでも
向上するとよいが...

TY-4 の CallSign が TY-7 になっていることを確認した。
送信間隔が以前より拡がっている。
