I copied pretty much all the telemetry from that RS-30 one day, it had a pretty good signal all right! Just up a few KC from AO-51 downlink. Maybe 435.312 and doppler down to 435.309.

It's RS-30, aka Yubileiny, on 435.315 and 435.215. Apparently there are no two-way packages onboard, unfortunately. It's also unfortunate that the builders didn't coordinate their downlinks with the IARU, and they ended up so close to the AO-51 downlink.

I've heard a CW beacon a couple of times operating on or around
435.300.
Unfortunately I dont have exact times from my QTH, but I cant find anything in the satellite list on AMSAT's site that has a working
beacon
on this frequency (or anywhere close). I heard it about 23:45Z,
breaking
the squelch (on FM) while waiting for the next AO-51 pass. This will
put
it about 10-15 mins before AOS for AO-51 from my QTH in EN90rw. Pardon
me
if there is an obvious answer to this, but I'm not familiar with all
the
ham birds up there yet.
Just trying to figure out what I could be hearing? This is not the
first
time I've heard CW on this freq.
