[amsat-bb] AO40 confusion

[Jon Neher <jneher@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I just got my dish going and have been receiving the middle beacon
strongly since 2:00 UTC (Sept. 7).  I've been tuning above and below it
and have heard no activity at all.  The beacon schedule on the
telemetry says that S1 is the transponder that is on except during
RUDAK MA 50-64, it says that S2 is on between MA 120-130.  I've been
listening in the 2401.225 - 2401.475 passband.  I tuned down to the area
where the S1 downlink and beacon should be and hear nothing.
Any help would be appreciated?

Thanks,

Jon
