Satellite on 427.025 sending callsign OM9XPA
I was tuning around on 70cm this morning looking for satellites and found a signal on 437.025MHz sending callsign OM9XPA plus a short burst of digital signal. Time was around 2021-06-1230utc.
I thought it might be GRBAlpha but that one was not in range at the time.
Can't put my finger on which one it might be.
Ideas?

It is Lighsail-2. The problem is that the satellite transmits (or it looks like that) O "---" instead of W ".--" in their CW, so you get OM9XPA instead of WM9XPA.
