[amsat-bb] Slightly Off Topic...Iranian satellite Transmitting Continuously

[Armando Mercado]

(Off topic content here so look away if offended...)

Hello,

Iran's first satellite is now reported to be transmitting a 20
second, 1 KHz tone every 100 seconds.  Frequency
is 464.9875 to 465.0125 MHz.  Omid was previously
obsevered transmitting only on passes passing over
Iran.  I have not heard it yet but will be listening.
