Correct, that is what we call the Batwing telemetry beacon for one of the cases birds.

Bob,
I bet CAS-4B was also above the horizon at the time as that appears to be the 4k8 GMSK telemetry on 145.890 MHz.

Hasan, In your SDR waterfall there is clearly an AM signal up the band with carrier and equal sidebands. Did you ever go listen to see what that was?Just curious. Bob, WB4APR

K7VNE reported to me this morning that he had been on XW-2D (long since non-operational) and sigs were very good, but no one else was on.
Signals were of good quality, no FM'ing of my SSB signal.
I just checked it and had a pass of Max EL 2 deg to my East. It is
there,
it is loud. *The CW beacon is raspy*.
The passband was normal level and my signal was typical:
Max Sig: -64 dBm Noise Floor: -81 dBM
I made an mp4 recording of the pass, with me calling CQ and announcing Elevation and signal levels.

Download this mp4 file and play it back on any device (even a phone) and you will see and hear what I did.
I have seen no announcement about not using the satellite, but will
watch
for same. 73, N0AN Hasan _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org. AMSAT-NA makes this open forum available to all interested persons worldwide without requiring membership.
