[amsat-bb] What is this phenomenon?

[Hans BX2ABT]

Thanks Scott. I turned back the clock on my phone to 0547UTC and ran my 
tracker and XW2E was indeed right over my QTH at that time. Will try 
again today to see if I can get any telemetry out of the CW beacon. On 
DK3WN there is a report from a Japanese ham who decoded it on July 12th.

Cheers,

Hans
