ARISSat-1 heard on 145.950 FM on Tuesday, August 16 at 2341 UTC. Nothing was heard from AOS to Zenith point (overhead my QTH). I initially thought the satellite battery had failed. Then to my surprise I heard very weak voice ID while it was tracking over Merritt Island, FL. My satellite program showed that the satellite was: AZ: 69 EL:+58.
