I just looked and my spot 2 just shows an envelope with a contrail, so less - or more - uncertain as to meaning.

Bill, You are correct. I was going from memory and my impression of what the symbols meant. Knowing the complains I had heard, I was thinking Spot had an absolute fix. But since it wasn't designed to receive signals it probably can't display a message sent light.
