Todays sats

I attempted listened to the following:
  • HO-68 (09:50 GMT)
  • CO-65 (10:05 GMT)
  • FO-29 (10:30 GMT)
  • CubeBug-1 (10:54 GMT) - Not heard
  • ESTcube1 (11:27 GMT) - Not heard
  • SO-50 (12:44 GMT)
  • ITUpSAT (13:04 GMT)
  • AENEAS (14:35 GMT)
The equipment was the same as last week. Times are approx AOS.

Started to restructure my software to start to allow me to do real time doppler corrections and then decode it - however its going to take a few more weeks of coding 'till I get something useful.

I ordered a comb generator from AMSAT-UK, which turned up yesterday. Hopefully this will allow me to quantify the drift I think I'm seeing in my RTLSDR (E4000) USB dongle. I started to assemble it but the SMD components have slowed me down.
