[amsat-bb] COSMOS-2499/RS47 CW telemetry

[Jean-Pierre Godet]

   Hi all !

   Looks like the RS47 is now more often in CW telemetry mode. The 435.565 MHz 
TX is always transmitting the digital DOKA-B when in view of Moscow (>= 4 deg 
above horizon) as does often the 435.465 TX, but when this last frequency was 
not busy, then the CW telemetry could be heard this morning (orbits 2675, 76 
and 77):

orbit 2675 from 06:53:21 till 06:54:51 UTC:
RS47  UBS 464  UAB 163  IBS 0  IAB 127  M (then digital transmission until LOS 
here)

orbit 2676 from 08:40:13 till 06:47:29 UTC:
IBS 0  IAB 127  MPWA 0  MPWB 145  TTXA 157  TTXB 155  TNAP 154  TGBV 154 TCON 
160  MCON 69  SMA 86  SMB 79  MRXA 26  MRXB 14 RS47  UBS 165  UAB 164 IBS 0 
IAB 128  MPWA 0
then about one minute and a half of digital transmission and this short 
sequence from 06:49:08 till 06:49:29 UTC:
RS47  UBS 165 (the digital DOKA-B until LOS).

   A short piece of the orbit 2676 pass is here:

   Best 73 !
