Hello All,
I have heard XW1 sat. with a fine signal. I've used the folowing kepler data which Mineo Wakita earlier posted in amsat-bb (please read the comment below!). 1 36121U 09072A 09349.15640464 -.00000045 00000-0 00000+0 0 19 2 36121 100.5046 046.2483 0006436 232.0630 127.9902 13.18995687 00 Keep in mind these keppler data are not accurate because I've heard XW1 3 minutes longer compared to keppler XW1 LOS on my tracker screen! Last signal (on my radio) heard at 22:24UTC in locator JO23XE. Used equipment: Transceiver: Yaesu FT897 with standard ceramic CW filter and 300Hz inrad filter. Antenna: M2 436CP30 (45 deg. fixed elevation, I can not move up or down!).
An audio recording is to listen here: http://iss.ontwikkel.nl/15Dec2009_XW1a_low.mp3
An amateur radio operator in Holland (Jan PDØSDO) also could hear the XW1 on an little GP antenna (about 60cm length).
Congratulations to all who have worked on the XW1 sat!
