The CW telemetry of STARS-EC (B = slow telemetry) indicates that the paddles have been deployed. All three signals are now about the same strength :-)

Line 2 is S1 AABBCCD

AA = RSSI
BB = 00 when an antenna is deployed
CC = always 00
DD = 00 when a paddle is deployed

the reason for the low field strength of STARS-EC (B) is that the antenna is not deployed

for comparison STARS-EC (A) antenna deployed
