Thank you for the information, Pete,
I noticed that the COSMOS-2499 (and the COSMOS-2491), like was the
Yubileiny-2, are transmitting ONLY when in sight of the Russian
Federation.
In western Europe, we have a pass East begining in about 45 mn and the
two frequencies will be on. Nothing will be heard on the next one over
North Antlantic.
Best 73 !
