I don't think there is a 148MHz transmitter, though Prospero's uplink is
148.25MHz.
Also, after looking at your page I think I should say that we think that
the Coast BBC transmission was almost certainly an Orbcomm
transmission. The Prospero downlink frequency was reassigned to Orbcomm.
Which sound file are you talking about? There are what claims to be
original audio files here: http://www.dd1us.de/spacesounds%204.html (you
need to find Prospero further down the page).

Hi Roger,
I have updated http://www.pe0sat.vgnet.nl/satellite/sat-history/prospero/
with my latest images and recordings. It is possible to get the complete
audio file. Send me a direct email and we can arrange something.
I had read that there is a 148.000 MHz transmitter on board prospero, and
I listend to that frquentie during the pass from 15:55 UTC. Maybe it is
interesting what is happening on that transmitter.
How do things go on your site regarding PROSPERO? any news?

Any listening on the downlink, and feedback on your observations, would
be most appreciated.
We may also try the later pass:
