What the original poster was asking for is the source, rather than precompiled Windows and Mac OSX binaries.
The source doesn't seem to be available yet. It's a shame that closed-source software seems to be so common in amateur radio - you get people sharing all sorts of information, but they just don't seem to have grasped the idea that letting people see the source code is a Very Good Thing.

Well, it WAS here https://svn.sarpeidon.net/viewvc/suitsat2/ground_station_software/ARISSatTLM... , but the link doesn't appear to work anymore....

Yeah, absolutely this is a problem.
What bothers me the most about this is saying I don't run Windows, or MacOS, or Linux, and then I just get the <blink> <blink> response, and that's it.
I know two kids interested at least to some extent about ham radio, both who are learning and understand open source culture, who were not exactly impressed with some of the closed source programs they've seen--and wanted to improve on.
But this is changing, and is yet another reason to get more younger people involved in ham radio in general.

I got so annoyed, I wrote my own TLM decoder for AO-51. (For FreeBSD, portable enough though)

Ditto.

Agreed.

Hi Guys,
This has always been open source, its just that the server is temporarily down. You can find all of the original LINUX code without the GUI on Phil's web site:
We hope to have the server with the ARISSatTLM Windows code up again soon.

Anthony, my comments were about ham software in general, not the arissattlm code. Apologies if it came off that way.

The stuff *without* the GUI is probably more useful to begin with, since you'd pretty much need to write the GUI from scratch ;-)
HDLC frames, y'say? Wonder if this could be used as an alternative to AFSK for packet?

Yeah. You know what? Github. Or Gitorious. Or something like that - there's bound to be an Subversion-based similar site. I used to run my own Git repo for things like lysdr and aprsmap. Now they can be found on Github:
because it's more fun writing code than maintaining servers, and life's too short to do both.

Gordon,
The source code for the decoder is what I am really interested in, and I had found the link to Phil Karns code on his site but was reluctant to use it since it is a tarzip and apparently not under source control hence probably not the latest; his site was last updated Dec 2010. The thinking is that the svn repository would contain decoder bug fixes and mods.
Joe, W2DSN

The server is back on line. You can find the code at https://svn.sarpeidon.net/suitsat2/repos/ground_station_software/ARISSatTLM/
