Got a great RF Reflection ping as it traveled over the US this morning. I will put the graphic and audio on the Kwangmyongsong 3 website page later today, along with the other captures I got of it. http://www.satwatch.org

The site is at satwatch.org if interested. I will update it with new info in case I gather any. Still listening for that music that is reported to be playing… Stay tuned. http://www.satwatch.org

This is probably and indication that the original capture I made this morning was something other than the Kwangmyongsong 3. Darn, wish it would have been… but I will keep searching.

What did the center frequency appear to be? 470.000?

I too was wondering about sun on the solar panels, especially with late day passes happening in darkness during these months.

There was doppler shift in the acquired signal…

Listened to 470 MHz during early pass where CO was within some radio path, if not best. Figured would try with light on solar panels, if that made difference. Here is report.

Acquired faint 1040hz tone at 0816hrs local, progressively got stronger but still very faint, then weaker with following changes.
0817 1040hz
0819 1060hz
0823 1090hz
0825 1110hz
0830 1135hz
0832 1150hz
0834 1160hz
0836 1168hz
then lost

Second pass showed no signals, as does now… no signals on 470 MHz
