The Open Air Physics Competition (NYIFFF), held in Szigliget, Hungary, saw 12 participating teams. As a highlight exercise, the groups were tasked with decoding the Masat-1 message, directly received on-site. The numbers broadcasted in the beacon message corresponded to the positions of specific words in the (Hungarian version of the) Physicists’ March a highly popular and well known song in circles of Hungarian physics students. The sequence of the initial letters of the words yielded the solution: ‘creative physics competition’.
