Last recording for me today: http://www.pa3weg.nl/pa3weg/recordings/CubeBug-1-26-04-2013_1040UTC_PA3WEG.m... On the second orbit I was listening in SSB and captured the AFSK beacon.
Just got the confirmation from the CubeBug-1 team I was the first confirmed RX ;)

CubeBug-1 Heard on the 12:20UTC pass again.
Hi All,
CubeBug-1 has been heard here again on the 12:20 UTC pass. Its modulation is AFSK 1200bd but seems to be lacking deviation.A recording can be found on http://pa3weg.nl/pa3weg/recordings/CubeBug-1t-26-04-2013_1220UTC_PA3WEG.mp3
The beacon should be on every 30s or 10s. The observed period was 30s.
Possibly, a low deviation FM RX can retrieve the signal.

The first half of the pass we were adjusting to the two tone CW. Then we tried if the transponder was on, which was not the case. I cut out this part of the pass.The second half is afterwards.
In the mean time I was trying to RX CubeBug-1, but had the TNC on 1200bd. I did hear some noise increase resembling 9k6 G3RUH FSK.

Hi All,
Just received The TurkSat CW beacon and some TX that looks like 9k6 from CubeBug-1.My TNC was set to 1200bd, and I did not have recording on the second RX.
I did record TurkSat and will be posting the MP3 soon.
CW Message as decoded by Wouter Jan PE4WJ: TURKSAT 3U SAT HAAAAAA YM2RTU 0 0 (the last zeroes are ??)
