Hi Bob,
Glad to learn you're collecting telemetry.
Since you get data from AO-51 from TLMEcho, you obviously know what comp port, TNC parameters, etc. work on your system. That's a good start.
For Wisp---yes, you can send yourself some 9600 baud recordings to see if it's working correctly. You can send the audio out your sound card and into your TNC to decode. If you loop the audio being played, you can test as long as you want. The AMSAT Digital Disk has some AO-51 9600 audio files on it (and some 38k4 audio files, too!). You can search and probably find some on the web to download, too.
Are you seeing any text/traffic via MSPE during a pass?
The PB list: empty means that nobody is in the queue downloading files or the directory. You should do a directory request and see if it fills for you. The uplink is on 1.2GHz, so that hinders the operations of many folks. Truth be known, about the only thing the BBS is used for these days is for the downloading of telemetry to the commmand stations. That function is vital to the health and maintenance of AO-51, so keeping the PBBS running is very important.
I'll send you some screen grabs of a few MSPE setup menus, in hopes that you'll see something to twiddle that might get Wisp working for you.

Hi!
I am able to recv a good amount of data from AO-51 utilizing
the AO-51 tlm program. Unfortunately, I am not able to collect any
data thru wisp. I'm pretty sure I have the app setup correctly but
never see any messages show up. Had better success years ago with
AO-16 and running PB. Is there a way to get data into the program to check
it operation rather then wait for passes?
I notice from the data I see utilizing TLM that I see a string PB-list empty does this
mean there are no messages ? Appreciate any feedback but a pointer to more wisp
help aside from mineo's site would be appreciated.
Cheers
BOB
