Hi All,
Here in the UK, I had a reasonable pass (43 deg elevation) at 23:08UTC on
4th October.
I did not hear 'WE WISH' at the expected frequency of 437.505kHz +/-
doppler.
However, I did detect a satellite transmitting on 437.515kHz +/- doppler.
This satellites doppler curve accurately followed the ISS, (but was 15s
ahead of the ISS).
The signal was very weak, but I think I heard some SSTV in the modulation.
The exact same happened 1 orbit later at 0:45UTC on 5th October (although
this time about 18s ahead of the ISS).
Is this 'WE WISH'. If so, is it transmitting 10kHz high ?
73s,
Simon (G7WIQ)
