Hi all !

Looks like the RS47 is now more often in CW telemetry mode. The 435.565 MHz TX is always transmitting the digital DOKA-B when in view of Moscow (>= 4 deg above horizon) as does often the 435.465 TX, but when this last frequency was not busy, then the CW telemetry could be heard this morning (orbits 2675, 76 and 77):

orbit 2675 from 06:53:21 till 06:54:51 UTC: RS47 UBS 464 UAB 163 IBS 0 IAB 127 M (then digital transmission until LOS here)

orbit 2676 from 08:40:13 till 06:47:29 UTC: IBS 0 IAB 127 MPWA 0 MPWB 145 TTXA 157 TTXB 155 TNAP 154 TGBV 154 TCON 160 MCON 69 SMA 86 SMB 79 MRXA 26 MRXB 14 RS47 UBS 165 UAB 164 IBS 0 IAB 128 MPWA 0 then about one minute and a half of digital transmission and this short sequence from 06:49:08 till 06:49:29 UTC: RS47 UBS 165 (the digital DOKA-B until LOS).

A short piece of the orbit 2676 pass is here: http://f5yg.pagesperso-orange.fr/forum/COSMOS-2499_orb2676_18dec2014.mp3

Best 73 !
