Re: [amsat-bb] LilacSat-2 over Central US 2340z
On the last 12 degree east coast pass I was able to hear my d/l with a center frequency of 437.188. That’s 37 kHz lower than the suggested 437.225...

to 437.190 MHz and possibly even 437.185 MHz.
Several stations across AR, TX, and LA reported only hearing telemetry on the 12:50 UTC pass. I never heard anything but telemetry at my QTH.
As read previously here on the BB, the downlink frequency of the transponder, APRS, and telemetry is now 437.200 MHz.

Do you have timestamps of when you heard your voice on the downlink? There were 3 stations here in the mid-south that all tried getting into the transponder on the 1250z pass, and none of us heard anything other than APRS packets. I was searching far and wide for any signal too, way outside the normal ranges.

I was also listening from Washington, DC and never heard anything except telemetry bursts.

As I got up late, it was later in the pass, I started around 6 degrees, I could bring the transponder up till about 1 degree. I think you guys were off in frequency on the d/l. I was surprised myself to find it so low. But is was certainly there.
