I have noticed that if the soundcard is stopped and then re-started within ARISSatTLM, that there is no further decode of telemetry. Upon soundcard re-start the audio level resumes activity and proper level, the CW search marker (blue) hops around as usual and locks onto the CW beacon, but the data search marker (red) freezes in a random position and there is no decode from this point on. Only by re-starting the whole ARISSatTLM program can decode be re-established.
The program decodes nicely with ARISSat-1 at two degrees or less above my horizon (with C.P. Yagi at 6 feet), so absolutely no issues there.
Is this a known "feature" of this version, or should I question my machine?

Larry,
I ran into the same situation the other night. I wasted a great 70° pass trying to figure out what was happening.
