Perhaps I'll do\nanother decoder that works on \"wide SSB\" (up to 24kHz width, with the\nsignal on the 12kHz mark), as is typically used for the wider 9k6 BPSK\nmodes. Using the \"FLL Band edge\" in GNU Radio, it should be possible to\ncorrect automatically around 500Hz of mistuning.\n\nAlso, there is a decoder from the PicSat team that runs on Windows and\nLinux. I haven't downloaded it, and I'm not even sure if it has been\nreleased in public (other than in its Github repo), but I've heard that\nit even searches for the signal (like the FUNcube dashboard or FOXtelem)\nso you don't even have to worry about tuning.\n\n73,\n\nDani.\n", "attachments": [] }
