Bob,
Got a chance to listen to the PSAT PSK beacon this morning on what was to be the 1246Z pass. I used HDSDR controlled by SATPC32 to get the passband. HDSDR ot Digipan through a virtual audio cable to decode. The Doppler was off which makes sense with the Keps that are off from what was posted. Saw some initial short transmissions with gaps in between and then a rather long run of transmissions. I never saw any other PSK31 activity besides the data beacon. Someday soon I will give transmissions a shot.
Attached is a file with the data I decoded this morning. Approximate time stamp of first beacon is at the head of the file.
I know you have made some reference in BB emails as to what some of the parameters generally mean. Will there be more details or a telemetry decoder soon?
I love the PSK transponder idea the University has created and look forward to giving it a try.
