[amsat-bb] LilacSat-2 over Central US 2340z

[kb2m at arrl.net]

As I got up late, it was later in the pass, I started around 6 degrees, I could bring the transponder up till about 1 degree. I think you guys were off in frequency on the d/l. I was surprised myself to find it so low. But is was certainly there.

Do you have timestamps of when you heard your voice on the downlink?  
There were 3 stations here in the mid-south that all tried getting into the transponder on the 1250z pass, and none of us heard anything other than APRS packets. I was searching far and wide for any signal too, way outside the normal ranges.
