OK !
So there is no way to select between either the soundcard (read output from HDSDR) or the FCD (which is in the system also a soundcard.
BUT: here is the work around; step 1: disconnect the FCD step 2: start ARISSatTLM (only th normal sound card is present, which it selects) (not: in the Tuning indicator no signal is seen) step 3: plug in the FCD (into the USB port of the PC) step 4: start HDSDR
and now ARISSatTLM shows the output of HDSDR
Voila (the French would say)

Hi Henk,
I totally agree with your suggestion, and to make it easy student is the key to get the younger generation interested in all these. I also understand that the ARISSat-1 team is already working on a page to show the submission of telemetry, so we shall wait a while and see.

Hi Sion, Great suggestion.
Another suggestion: Not for us experimenters, but for schools / teachers / others / .. :
ARISSatTLM setup under Win7 worked fine, the assumed directory for the TLM storage was indeed used.
For Win XP this did not work: I got an error message when starting ARISSatTLM, it looked for the directory on the wrong place (it was created somewhere else). So I moved that directory to the place it was looking for it, and it works.
I know there is a heads up on this issue during the install process, but still. For those many new people we try to interest (those 1+ million AMSAT reached with the press release), it would be good to fix this.
Just my 2 cents.
Henk
(btw: the SW overall looks good & quite appealing (also important in this case), it seems to incorporate the best ideas of recent other space programs, including Delfi-C3, RAX, ..)
Another idea (maybe this is already in place and I missed it) It would be nice to have on the ARISSat telemtry website (latest values) an overview of which stations submitted the data (they entered their callsign under 'tools'). That would highly motivate new people to contribute. Imagine you are a student, and build a receive set-up, and can show your teacher your name/call is listed on the official ARISSat website ! Projects like RAX and FASTRAC do this already: http://fastrac.ae.utexas.edu/for_radio_operators/users/phpBB3/topuploa ds.php

Hi Henk,
I seem to have the same problem as you do, and how I overcame it is to ensure that the sound card that you want ARISSatTLM to use is the default system sound card.
Perhaps the developer of ARISSatTLM can place an option in the software to allow us to select the desired sound card to use with it?

Case: Using ARISSatTLM with the output of HDSDR (connected to FCD SDR).
- using Win XP (by luck ?) ARISSatTLM selects the decoded output of
HDSDR (volume of HDSDR varies the input level of the ARISSTLM window)
- using Win7 64bit ARISSatTLM seems to select another input (unclear
which)
How can I select which sound card ARISSatTLM should use ?
