[amsat-bb] BY70-1 not heard

[Paul Stoetzer]

The FM transponder sounded good right until I lost it behind my
building (I was on a south facing balcony). Then it sounded like
someone keyed it up and then it started transmitting what sounded like
a solid carrier to my ears. Perhaps someone was taking a photo?

73,

Paul, N8HM
