OSCAR-11 heard again

OSCAR-11, built by the University of Surrey's Spacecraft Engineering Research Group, ceased operating in 2008 after 24 years service. Now its signals have been heard again on 145.826 MHz FM.

In a posting on the AMSAT Bulletin Board Clive G3CWV writes:

I have received two reports from Keith N4ZQ (EL88ob) that he has heard UO-11 on 19 November at 13:33 - 13:43, and on 22 November at 13:02 UTC.

He has sent me a WAV file of the second pass. Unfortunately, it's a very low elevation pass, and probably will be difficult to decode, as it contains a lot of noise. However it's definitely UO-11.

I'll be interested in receiving any other reports.
The frequency is 145.826 MHz. Mode is FM.

Further details are on my OLD website http://www.users.zetnet.co.uk/clivew

There is an audio clip to help identify the satellite.

Please e-mail me via the AMSAT reflector.
