Thank you, sir. That's just what I was looking for. I think some of my students could learn from downloading some satellite data and turning it into real values using a little algebra.
I appreciate your help.

The first value is battery volts in hundredths. The second is bus power in mA. The third and 4th are +Z and -Z temps using the equation-1.26E-6*X^3 +0.0028 X^2 -2.215X +625. The last one is meaningless when the digi is ON. When the digi is off, then the last one is battery temp -2.5E-6* X^3 +0.0061X^2 -5.149X^+1475. In the 00011X00 value only the X has meaning. It is 0 if the digi is ON and it is 1 if the digi is OFF.
Bob, WB4APR I was wondering more about decoding the telemetry values in a line like this that can be received on the two meter downlink: 00:00:18:41 : PSAT]APRSON,ARISS,qAR,W7KKE:T#515,854,075,502,862,410,00011000 In the original paper I found on the internet from 2007, the equations for decoding the values were "TBD". I assume that they have been determined and would like to get a copy of them.
