[amsat-bb] CAPE-2 news

Hello my friends !

The pass over western Europe of orbits between 204 and 308 (this last yesterday) were well received, especially the CW telemetry (decoded by ears :-) because of its interesting sound). This morning, during orbit 323 pass (AOS 0732 UTC here) a continuous carrier alone was heard, slowly frequency modulated at the rate of the satellite rotation due to the voltage variation with no battery available : period 4 seconds, amplitude 850 Hz. Better, have a look here : http://f5yg.pagesperso-orange.fr/forum/CAPE-2_orb323_11dec2013.mp3 http://f5yg.pagesperso-orange.fr/forum/CAPE-2_orb323_11dec2013.jpg

Have a nice day, everyone ! 73 !
