Hey Tony ... was that the Russian bird that automatically issued you a QSO number once you made the contact???

Yes it was...
The QSO number on the recording I have is 1339. The RS-12 robot QSO went like this:
RS12 DE AB2CJ AR (my old call was AB2CJ)
Robot responds:
AB2CJ DE RS12 QSL NR 1339 OP ROBOT TU SW QSO NR 1339 73 SK
I think the robot would adjust to the callers code speed as well; it's been a while so I'm not sure. I can send you the recording if you like.

All,
Was just going through my satellite recordings and found a Merry Christmas / Happy New Year message sent via the RS12/13 transponder and was wondering if anyone could explain the errors?
"CQ CQ CQ DE RS12 AND RS3X MERRY CHRIJTMAS AND A HAPPI NEW YEAR"
Message upload mishap? Lost in translation issue?

Tony,
When did you record this? I thought Rs-12/13 has been silent for years.

Jeff,

Yes it did go silent some time ago. The recording is probably 10 years old.

Tony,
FB. At first I thought RS-12/13 pulled an AO-7. :) RS-12/13 was a fine bird. It was the first bird I made satellite QSO's with and had a blast with it. RS-10/11 provided numerous contacts as well.

Now that post brought back memories. :-) There was a robot on RS 10/11 too.
