Hi all,

If you hear the COMPASS-1 beacon on 437.275 MHz (CW) please report your results to us.

There is a simple decoder to download here: http://www.dk3wn.info/files/compass.zip http://www.dk3wn.info/files/compass.zip

this "1" means - heater ON

In this case you can try to send the important command ****#14#200#. And the other ones as well..

COMPASS is in emergency mode - so the beacon comes every 8 minutes. Please listen and have a little patience :-)

Thank you very much for your efforts,

73, Mike
