Dear All,
MP3 recording are now available for:
29 April, 1315 UTC: http://www.9w2qc.net/amsatbb/seeds2115.mp3 29 April, 1448 UTC: http://www.9w2qc.net/amsatbb/seeds2248.mp3
Sorry for the large file size. The files are unedited as I really do not have time to do so right now. So do expect to hear some key presses :)
Looks like I need to put another 70 CM antenna up the rotator to track two satellites simultaneously :)

Dear All,
Finally managed to copy some signals from SEEDS this evening (29th April 2008) after missing it this morning. Some CW telemetry decoded by myself are as follows:

Also tried to listen to the other satellites during the first pass but did not manage to hear anything else. Listened briefly for Cute-1.7+APDII on the second pass but did not hear anything. Concentrated on SEEDS as it was very loud and also I was operating from out of the shack via VNC/Teamspeak and did not want to mess things up.
For both passes, object C keps were used. Signals were strong with occasional QSB. Equipment used was IC-910H, 2x15 Element vertically polarized yagi with SP-7000 preamp. Due to my poor CW copying skills, I will post a recording of both passes shortly in case I copied some letters wrongly.
