on the trans-Atlantic ascending pass at around 23:55UTC on Sept. 7, I
seem to have succesfully commanded COMPASS. At least it gave a beep
after the second command. Moreover, I heard (very chirpy!) telemetry
from it. Once I hunted for the signal with RIT, I lost a bit of it,
but the last elements seem to be 201800b72903 unfortunately, the
beacon decoder will not take a partial beacon, so someone else will
need to decode this.
It was a great thrill to be part of the effort to sustain this
project. Thanks to all involved for requesting our assistance and
entrusting us with this task
