Hello my friends from AMSAT-Argentina !
Your bird was heard here in the North of France, very very strong
signal, the sort you received with dash and dots, strong especially
according to the conditions : ground plane antenna in the attic, AM
receiver and 456,9 kHz transmitter poorly hacked together to receive CW,
GaAsFET preamp.
Orbit nr 22133, acquisition at 1202 UTC, lost at 1215 UTC (elev. then
was about 4 deg.). The max elevations was around 42 deg.
I recorded audio and spectrogram, I send you both later.
Best 73 !

LUSAT-1 (LO-19) CW Beacon on 437.125 KHz quit transmiting on Dec-2012 after 23
years of operation, only a very weak carrier from local osc could be copied.
Recent reports state that LUSAT was again heard, today we received a regular
signal compatible with LUSAT on 437.125 +/- Doppler in two passes.
By the strong level and QRG of the signal it corresponds to LUSAT.
Modulation is CW without a morse logic, just some dots, regular spaces
and sometime a dash, no information is decoded, not always the same sequence or
message.

Any further heard or reports appreciated.
