   Hi Douglas, all!

   I'm late as Scott just shared  his full pass excellent i/q file and 
nice video.
   If this can help, I recorded only 50 secondes of the last pass over 
western Europe (orbit nr 32) so that the files don't become too large.

A 32-bit floating point raw i/q file (for Gqrx, etc...):

The same one translated in a PCM 16-bit wav file (for SDR#, etc...):
http://f5yg.pagesperso-orange.fr/incoming/CAS-4A_20170617_orb32.wav

The full 199 frames of this 50 seconds record (text hexa):

And the sound of space with the CW telemetry (mp3):

   Have a nice w.-e.!
