Telemetry test doesn't appear to have worked.

Presently we're seeing ~5MB/day or ~625 kB/segment. CICESE has seen ~340 kB/segment with a somewhat similar configuration so this is some confirmation our set up isn't totally bogus.

Edit

Testing a telemetry leg because averaging settings seem to only be making ~5KB/day. Haven't really run non-burst mode so not sure if this is OK or not.

150 m dive with the following config:
