I have the fox-1 telemetry program running; am tracking using the guesstimate Keps .. but what is the freq for telemetry? Currently I am on 145.980 FM
That is correct. New keps are here:

For a little girl who uses an iPhone app to track the birds, where can she go to get the pass info in a format she can use?
She uses an app called Hamsat and j don't believe there is a way to manually enter Keps. Is there an online prediction tool that will give Az/El, etc.?

I have Hamsat on my iPhone. Look for the Manual Data Entry option on the "Manage Sats" screen. There you can copy and paste the TLEs. I have them working fine on mine since I don't have SatPC32 on the work PC.

GoSatWatch is an iPhone app that is easy to add the new keps. It's the most modern looking and user friendly which is a plus for a youngster nowadays.

From: Bob KD7YZ kd7yz@denstarfarm.us To: AMSAT BB amsat-bb@amsat.org Sent: Thursday, 8 October 2015 10:49 PM Subject: [amsat-bb] QRG for Telemetry on Fox-1A ?
I have the fox-1 telemetry program running; am tracking using the guesstimate Keps .. but what is the freq for telemetry? Currently I am on 145.980 FM
Yes, as I understand it it should be on 145.980 MHz.
I've got my Funcube Dongle Pro+ plumbed into FoxTelem. It seems to lie in wait around 145.995-ish, but when I keyed up an HT at 145.980 it slinked its way down and centered on the HT's signal (even without "Find Signal" checked).
I even tried playing the test telemetry audio on another computer, with the HT's mic held up near the speaker. I don't think it decoded anything, but since the telemetry is "sub-audible" I imagine it got filtered out by the HT. The squiggly lines on FoxTelem seemed to react to the noise, so that confirms that it's hearing something.
I think I've got mine ready and waiting for the next fly-over, which SatPC32 says starts at 23:57z down here in EM72 land.

Just a reminder - since the low data rate telemetry is subaudible, you will likely need to use the 9600 baud data out pin (and select the 9600 baud packet mode in the 817 menu) to get the unfiltered audio for decoding telemetry.

Yes. The speaker audio will filter out the subaudible tones. Data port does not.
