Been hearing a satellite in which its down link similar to that of AO-51 (around 435.310 starting) All I hear is CW telemetry coming from the unit. The last contact was around 2038 UTC at 28.161350 NORTH Latitude (my location EL98) 80.703160 WEST Longitude
Some of the telemetry I could copy before it faded was:
ISUN0 ITXA0 ITXB6 TTXA65 TTXB66 TNAP80 ? MIXF0 MCON53 SMA86 SMB62 etc.
There seems to be approximately 17 data codes and then repeats. The signal is usually strong enough that it comes through quite well even without the 70cm preamp being turned on.
Anyone have an idea of what satellite that this might be?
