Greetings!

I monitored the 0314 utc pass on 21-Dec here on the U.S. East Coast but ran 
into difficulty because there was so much traffic from other satellites in 
the area of the downlink:

... however, that won't be the case on every orbit so will continue to look 
for CAS-6 & hope for the best!

Has anyone from Stateside heard TLM from CAS-6? (not expecting xponder on,
just want to hear its heartbeat)

I see a couple isolated reports from other areas of the world. There was no
signal on the 5 deg EL earlier pass, and now waiting for teh 10;57 a.m.
16:57z pass with an EL of 64 deg here in central USA
73, N0AN

I'm guessing that even the beacon may not be on while out of range of China
