The FUNcube-2 telemetry beacon is also on and very strong. It has been on continuously since yesterday. I've worked it on both day and night passes.
There was what appeared to be a reset on the first pass this afternoon where the transponder switched off midpass for a few seconds.
In addition, the CW beacon from the satellite's primary transceiver desenses the transponder uplink for about 20 seconds or so when it's transmitting.
The uplink offset appears to be anywhere from +12 - +15 kHz from published.

Now that the transponder is switched on will it be on 24/7 or does it shift to data
