Following a tip on Twitter, I tried a XW-2C pass this early evening and first heard the beacon transmitting continuously, and then worked XE1GK with good signals, and the transponder stayed on continuously, no 2 seconds on 2 second off, so it seems that the satellite is working again!!
Great to have XW-2C back! The XW2 sats are some of my favorite. Don't know if any others than XW-2A are back to working again, but plan on monitoring and trying them as well. Hope to see some of you on XW2C soon!
