Since July 17 LilacSat-1 has an attitude problem that causes strong QSB. http://www.qsl.net/py4zbz/lilac1.htm#s 73 de Roland PY4ZBZ

Based on the telemetry values, the satellite does appear to have some form of active attitude control. BG2BHC mentioned on Twitter that they are trying to reduce the spin.
I made a QSO via the satellite on Friday night, but with the rapid QSB, it was very difficult to decode more than a syllable or two at a time.
