My idea was to try and use an RTL dongle as \nan inexpensive sat RX. I was using HDSDR with the dongle and an omni \nscanner antenna. I didn't have any luck at all receiving SO-50 but was \nable to copy some stuff from VO-52. I also had desense issues when I \nconducted experiments with an old two meter HT I have lying around here. \nI was going to experiment with some filters to cope with the desense and \nbuild an preamp based on the design of the one available from AMSAT but \nI got discouraged a bit and sidetracked so the project went on the back \nburner. Just lately I tried the SDR Radio console with my RTL dongle but \ncould never get the software to recognize it. I apparently have some \nfiles missing and it hasn't been clear to me which ones or where to find \nthem. I very much wish I could afford a Funcube dongle pro but it's not \nin the cards for me right now. Perhaps I'll give receiving AO-73 a shot \nagain. Been thinking about it. I appreciate you posting your experiences.\n73,\nMichael, W4HIJ\nOn 11/24/2013 11:28 AM, Jason Charles wrote:\n> All,\n>\n> I posted an inexpensive way to listen and decode the Funcube telemetry\n> with the cheap RTL-SDR dongle.
