....All I get is garbage, although it might be a codec issue on my end.

I'm sure somebody mentioned it, but the Parkes radiotelescope (which is not
part of the Tidbinbilla/Honeysuckle* tracking complex) was the telescope
tracking the descent and landing of Huygens on Titan. Thats two worlds
that have had a first contact received at Parkes!

* Honeysuckle was decomissioned in 1981 with its tracking antenna moved to
the Tidbinbilla site. Its last track was of Pioneer 12.
