Dear Alex,
You are right! We got same report from different country, we have confirmed it was a software problem, we restarted the transponder then it come back to normal.
Thank you very much for your valuable report, we are looking forward to hear from you in the future!

There is no carrier on the repeater until somebody turn on his uplink with 67Hz PL, or transponder will transmit PACSAT UI frame per 12 second if uplink is idless.

That may be how it should be but I can assure you the carrier was on continuously during the time I reported in my original post (1331-1341 UTC) and it did not respond to my input signal. I believe others have reported the same.
