I'd also like to add digital capabilities to the IC-910H to allow some digital contacts through ISS, or just to download telemetry on other birds. Never worked packet before, and have only limited experience with APRS.
The IC-910H is equipped with a Signa-Link interface for soundcard modes, and I've worked quite a bit of WSJT FSK and JT65A. I know that there is a software "solution" for APRS using AGWPE but I haven't tried it.
What would be the recommendations of the group for equipping my station for digital operation on the satellites? AGWPE and the soundcard interface or a TNC? If so, what TNC would be recommended?
Did I say "Thanks" yet? Also appreciate the bandwidth on this reflector--I know newbie questions can be annoying.
Les,
I was using UISS along with AGWPE and a Signalink for 1200bd packet.

Les I also have a 910H and I use AGWPE ,UISS for software and a Rigblaster for interface. And it all plays nice. The thing about AGWPE and UISS is that their free and a great way to start out to see how you like it. 73 John KC0BMF

Hi,
In august 2010 object 09038F ANDE-2 Castor satellite decayed. It was using an experimental 1200 bauds AX.25 packet beacon with Forward Error Corrections : FX.25 frames. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FX.25_Forward_Error_Correction
I am interested in doing some experiment with FX.25 and looking for some source code for encoding and decoding FX25. In a message from Mike DK3VN on Google group forum https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/fx25/R9gXJUe_NKU/3beFwRP5R8kJ there is a citation of a file called rs_decode_avr2.tar but no link.
Stensat page "FX.25 on air performance" dated 2007 http://eludium.stensat.org/mcguire/projects/FX-25/ has links for files FX-25_enc_03.c and FX-25_extract.c However these are probably alpha or beta versions and are not fully operational.
Can someone provide some clues toward more up-to-date FX.25 sources ?
