Hi Bill,
You can download all of the data for AO-85 from this link: http://amsat.org/tlm/ao85/serverlogs.tar.gz That contains the raw data in CSV format. For Fox-1A the conversions are defined in the back of the manual for FoxTelem.
As Jerry said, your best bet might be to use FoxTelem. You can save the data as a CSV file from any graph. Even if it plots multiple channels. That allows you to save converted data in human readable form and do further analysis in another program.
I'm more than happy to walk you through how to do this and help extracting or converting the data. Let me know how I can help.

What CSV files are you getting from FoxTelem. As I recall they all have a first line that has the name of the field. Or do you mean translation from downlinked units to standard units (like volts, ma, degrees, etc)? I'm not sure there is a doc, but there probably should be. Let us know what you need to know.

Is there a document on how the CSV files are formatted? (I can't seem to find any information on what columns are what.)

Bill,
You can download all of the data for any particular satellite with FoxTelem, using the "fetch server data" menu item. I would suggest setting up/switching to a separate FoxTelem data directory for that so the info doesn't overwrite your own captured data and can be left alone to play with.
Your analysis is of interest to engineering and many others I am sure, once you have studied the data and come to some conclusions or hypotheses you may want to consider presenting it in an AMSAT Journal article.

Is it possible to get some sort of download for the Historical

downlinked by Fox-1A? It would be interesting to study its life in
space.
