The mission of the LOBACHEVSKY satellite will follow a goal to connect many amateurs around the world. There will be a topic created on SatNOGS community forum to share news, amateur programs and achievements of the mission. There also will be these three experiments conducted: Amateur radio VHF crossband repeater will allow radio amateurs from all over the world to exchange short messages, participate in competitions. SSDV and SSTV transmissions with images obtained by the Lobachevsky spacecraft cameras is planned. Radio amateurs will be able to receive both panchromatic and hyperspectral camera images, thus linking scientific activities with amateur communications. Experimental transmission of DVB-S2 video of the Lobachevsky satellite flyby on X band. This will allow radio amateurs to test their receiving setups. Information about the video transmission will appear in advance on the University website. http://www.unn.ru/ Proposing VHF downlink for the AFSK 1k2 digital repeater, UHF GFSK 9k6 downlink for telemetry SSDV and SSTV plus an X Band downlink for DVB-S2 2 Mbs experiments. Planning a Roscosmos launch from Vostochniy in Q3 2024 or Q1 2025 into 510/520 km SSO.
