Hi folks,

According to the PDF at http://www.unoosa.org/pdf/ser443E.pdf the smart-1 satellite has a x-band TX running on 8453MHz. Does anyone know if this is transmitting all the time, or is commanded on now and then? The s-band 2235.1MHz signal is 'easy' to detect, but it would be better to get the x-band signal.

regards,

Paul
