The cause is the primary transceiver onboard the satellite transmitting it's beacon signal and overloading the receiver on the FUNcube-2 transponder.

I have observed the same behavior on passes over South America. The transponder passband singal is as strong as the FunCube BPSK beacon.

Hello everyone,
we have noticed, during EU passes, that UKUBE-1 starts trasmitting noise every 2-3 minutes. Looks like a spurious signal saturating and covering about half of the passband.
Any idea ?
