Right now I'm getting an extremely strong signal on 253.825. It's the most clear I have ever heard on satcom. It sounds like a guy speaking Russian but I don't know. I have the R-20 recording it. I am using the Dorne and Margolin antenna with a GRE 3001 preamp and I'm getting a 90-100% signal meter. I've never caught one that strong before.

Also, the PSR-500 seems to be an excellent Mil Satcom receiver. I was searching with it first and came across the signal.

WHere are you located?

Satellite downlinks are usually spot beams on certain parts of the earth. Just wondering where you are when you heard this.
