Hello,
Sometimes even the beacons disappear from the waterfall, like this:
Is this strong signal on 10489.300 which 'takes' all of the available power of the transponder?

What's happening sometimes?

Hello,
This looks like an empty transponder with the beacons switched off. FT8 is still there, so power is available. Make a screenshot of the strong signal on 10489.300. I see no signal on my rx there, so maybe the websdr you are using receives it from a local source. Is it always there? Which websdr have you been using and what time?

Hello Martin,
It happens from times to times for a few minutes only, I have noticed this for the second time this morning . As soon this strong signal stops, the beacons are back again.
The screenshot was taken on the Batc QO-100 WebSDR
