Speaking of FM signals on FO-29, you'll be able to hear the AO-85 transponder through FO-29 when their paths cross as well. I wonder if you could get a high enough SNR to decode the DUV...

I wouldn't recommend playing the FM audio heard via FO-29 to a group of children. Normally it's not English. It's most likely NOT a religious broadcast based on their choice of crude words.

So yes, in the last couple weeks I've seen a LOT of FM activity on FO-29. And based on my experience with Friday's pass, which was ascending, I'm leading towards the Central/South America QRM theory. Lots of strong FM activity as the pass started and the satellite was over the lower latitudes, but as FO-29 ascended over higher latitudes towards the north pole, the FM activity died down.
