Hi Phil, The first few passes I concentrated on telemetry. On my last 18 deg pass I was copying myself through the transponder but with a poor signal. On my just completed pass I was getting good signals back from the transponder but with a strong 6 second polarization fade. The satellite went into eclipse halfway through the current pass and went to its on/off mode.

Could you hear any receiver noise in the transponder passband? ----- No virus found in this message.
