I also noticed it Roy, enough of a difference that I looked up the power output in the telem and saw that at least according to it power has been dropped. I'm running a m2 436cp30 at 30 feet with a SSB preamp, and previously I have seen S9+ signals, the last couple of passes have been S5-S6 on a IC-9100.
Now it is winter and cloud cover makes a difference and if I have a inch of inch around the antenna I hearĀ "nothing" and of course there is propagation as a variable, but something has changed.
The command ops are the only ones that can really confirm the power change.

Is HuskySat really only transmitting with 13 mW? If yes, is that healthy? If no, what does that value represent?
