[Peter Goodhall (2M0SQL)]

Suspect you're receiving less TLM frames as the beacon is using less
power think about 30mW rather than the 400mW you was seeing before
this is because the transponder is getting most of the power budget.

Good time to see if you can improve your RX setup for the weaker signal :)
