Hey Martin!

There was word floating around pre-launch to look for Beresheet at 2.280
GHz and there does appear to be a good signal there as reported by EU
stations.

At only 20° elevation this morning to my location I'm already seeing a
decent signal with painfully slow doppler (as you would expect), but it'll
take time to verify whether that's it or not.

In https://www.celestrak.com/NORAD/elements/tle-new.txt , objects 44048,
44049, & 44050 popped up right after deployment last night, so it's likely
one of those.
