7:13 a.m.
From the east coast of Canada, heard all components of the ARISSAT-1
signal (CW, BPSK, SSTV, FM voice) in the passes beginning at the following times: 05:00, 08:12, 09:50, 11:25Z
These were recorded overnight with a FCD using a set LO frequency of 145,910 kHz. This ensured that all telemetry was recorded (but clear of the centre spike), and FM was recorded well, except at the very early part of passes, when it might be expected to be lost in noise anyway (I have an omni antenna).
Hooray for the hard work and cooperation that has led to this ARISSAT-1 success, and hooray for the FCD!
