During my last pass at 0332Z, max elevation 45 degrees out over the
Pacific,
I noticed that STRaND1 was stronger when I selected LHCP while approaching TCA. After TCA, RHCP was stronger while it was receding. I believe this cubesat uses a whip, so not sure what is causing this.
Anyone have an idea why?
Tnx, Ken, W7KKE CN75xa
