Hi Luc & all,
thank your for your observation! We are aware of this issue, and we know what causes it, it is power / attitude related & the way our power system works. The TX sounding distorted sometimes is related to that also. We are currently working on a strategy to fix this, but need a little more data from passes over our Groundstation before we can take the proper action. And we are taking it step by step since we certainly don't want to loose the bird! Meanwhile, she is producing an abundance of telemetry, we're closing in on the 70000 received frames number... amazing! Oh, by the way, the -68.1 degrees figure you see on RAP1 (radio 1) is not a valid reading, since that sensor is switched off because that radio is not powered :) )
thank you all for listening and capturing telemetry!
73 on behalf of the team,
Wouter Jan Ubbels PE4WJ

I watched DELFI C 3 when he goes out eclipse. As soon as he get some light he start to transmit his data but and as reported by some listeners he stopped transmitting after one or two minutes and he normally does not come back even if he's in full light.
My question: is it normal or is it a problem?
Thank's for your inputs
P.S. SEEDS is now in CW TLM mode i try to decoded with CWGET but he's not reliable i will have to recorded and decoded it after...Pain in the neck as my CW is a "bit" rusty Did any one try another CW decoder who at least put gaps between TLM strings?
Too lazy to copy CW
