Peter,

Thanks for the translated version and to Trevor for pointing us to the original.

Unfortunately - no hint of a transponder so I'll assume the worst and just be happy to track and try to decode the interesting download.

Sure wish they would be more forthcoming with information.

No coordination done via the IARU - but then they never have (to the best of my knowledge).

Regards...Bill - N6GHz

I'm just hoping that between 435.215 and 435.315 is the output of a Mode J linear transponder - fingers crossed.

Alas that may be wishfull thinking. Just been reading the Journal of OAO "ISS" No.3, February, 2008 at http://www.iss-reshetnev.ru/images/File/magazin/2008/m3-screen.pdf

and from there it looks like a 145-435 MHz Store-and-Forward system.
