Hi,

Date: Sun, 16 Mar 2014 12:27:28 -0500 From: "jerry keeton" jkboxk@wildblue.net Just before ZACUBE-01 reaches its' apex , I hear a signal that sounds like pactor . That is on 14.099 . Never seem to find the correct software for decoding . Just wondering if that is zacube since I hear it on every pass ?

As Hans and Jan said we have not yet switched on the beacon transmitter or deployed the antenna. The initial beacon transmitted will be a short morse encoded text message, at eight or ten words per minute if I recall correctly. There is also a pseudorandom number message but that will likely only be used later on. We will definitely publicise it when we do start transmitting. In the mean time you can find more info at http://www.cput.ac.za/fsati and also on http://twitter.com/fsatispace .
