It was transmitting 300 baud ASCII, using 1200/2400 hz tones (close enough for a Bell 202 modem). Now all I have to do is find out what these numbers mean: AMSAT 10000 00000 00100 10000 01110 00000 00001 00000 00000 AMSAT 10000 00000 00110 00000 01110 00000 00001 00000 00000 00110 01040 02700 03000 04000 05000 06000 07000 08509 09473 10100 11090 12000 13000 14025 15000 16000 17000 18508 19471 20110 21090 22670 23000 24003 25000 26003 27283 28513 29476 30000 31060 32665 33343 34012 35273 36366 37439 38514 39469 40000 41090 42742 43000 44043 45000 46002 47497 48513 49518 50000 51090 52272 53089 54737 55327 56013 57499 58510 59484 A complete set of formulas, etc, should be forthcoming in the Amsat Satellite Report bulletin.
