Hi Phil,
The first few passes I concentrated on telemetry. On my last 18 deg pass I was copying myself through the transponder but with a poor signal. On my just completed pass I was getting good signals back from the transponder but with a strong 6 second polarization fade. The satellite went into eclipse halfway through the current pass and went to its on/off mode.

Another ARISSat-1 pass over ZL. 0206UT, 27 deg. Good telemetry but nothing on the transponder. 19 data frames and 23 Kursk frames uploaded.
Could you hear any receiver noise in the transponder passband?
