 Hi dear Gazza

I also have heard MIR "out" of frequency,  since last July, but mixed with
passages on the
"right" frequency of 145.985.  When "out" I found the best tuning at 145.940.
More, some times I have heard sequences of "tones" (just like DTMF). They was
present only during acquisition times and coming from the direction of the craft

(I use a 9+9 Yagi with azimuth and elevation control).
By this I (reasonably) suppose the tones come from MIR.
My be I'm completely wrong, but someone else hear these ?

Thanks to all and  best listening to MIR
