Received a strange message in Spanish on 251.275 MHz coming from an unknown satellite in the CONUS slot.

I was told by henrygb on RadioReference.com forums that the message says:

Hi, I’m Julio Domingo , I want to share good news for Argentina, I want to report that the Chamber of Deputies of the nation which I reside approved local law sovereign payments sent by President Cristina Fernandez of Kitchner.

I guess we’ll mark this one in the oddball column of the log.

Last week I monitored some weak AM traffic on CONUS satcom downlink freq 261.575 from India Whiskey, Delta, Kilo, Oscar and Mike. It is very weak and a bit distorted, but still found it interesting.
