"Also, the signal has been considerably weaker and with a lot more QSB than
I see on either AO-73 or EO-88."

JY1-SAT is currently running in safe mode with only 30 mW of power
out, so it's 10 dB weaker than AO-73 (currently at about 300 mW in
full sun) and about 13 dB weaker than EO-88 (in sunlight - running 500
mW).

73,

Paul, N8HM
