Steve,
I have a similar problem, I used HDSDR for a couple of years in the development/testing of the Foxes and then "one day" a few months ago, FoxTelem just quit decoding what came from HDSDR. I never found a reason, after tweaking everything I know of to tweak. Same symptoms as yours, looks right but doesn't decode.
I had also used SDR# in some of the testing so I switched back to it and it has been working fine. I still try HDSDR now and then and it still doesn't work. This was all on the same PC running Windows 10, so HDSDR worked and then just didn't. I don't know if it was a Windows update or what. Anyway you might want to try another SDR application, to see if you can get back on track.
Come to think of it I just built a new PC so maybe I'll try HDSDR on it now, and see if it works or not. We're testing RadFxSat so maybe I can let it run while I'm in the Fox Labs doing the testing and see if it captures any of the test data. I will (try to remember to!) let you know if it does work on the new PC. FWIW, I'm not recommending a new PC just to make it work! :-D

So, what's the most common reason that the FoxTelem program won't decode?
I'm running HDSDR software with an RTL-SDR dongle. It has worked in the past, but hasn't been decoding for about two weeks now. I can see the peak of the AO-85 on the HDSDR screen and manually track the doppler shift. Everybody is set to 48000 sample rate. I get perfect "eyes" on the FoxTelem screen. But zero decoding.
Anybody got any hints or tips?
