Re: [amsat-bb] IC-9100 AO-85 Telemetry
Hello,I had the same problem. Then i used the line input of the soundcard and it worked. If you use the mic input your audio will be filtered on most soundcards.Good luck,Eric ON4HF. Sent with my smartphone...

Just a comment. What AO85 telem needs is no HIGH PASS filtering down to maybe 10 or 20 Hz. Sometimes 9600baud output has no filtering at all (or little) but 9600 baud packet mainly cares about no LOW PASS filtering up in the multiple kHz range. And at least my radio does not even spec the low side.
You might try putting the output on a scope and then transmit using the lowest possible CTCSS tone to see if it shows up on the scope. (Just suggesting CTCSS as a source of a fairly low frequency). If you see nothing lows are being filtered. (I think you can also see it on the FoxTelem display. That would be an even better end-to-end test). Obviously be careful not to transmit on the downlink frequency when the satellite is nearby :-)

Thank you to everyone who contributed suggestions on how to setup the radio and software to decode the telemetry. I finally was able to decode a pass this evening and that would not have happened with the help from the AMSAT-BB. Several items needed to be corrected.
1. Turn on menu item 57 (9600 Baud) on IC-9100. 2. Put IC-9100 into FM Digital mode by holding down the FM button. 3. Set the sound card to 48,000 Hz. to match the FOXCOM software. 4. Use line in on the sound card.

Yay! This makes me happy too Frank, because your contribution of AO-85 telemetry as well as all of those others who do so, helps us learn how to do things better. Thank you for helping!

I'll add another little trick. I tested this and it works.
Make a second DOPPERL.SQF line for AO-85 with the FMD,FM option. You will still be able to decode and work the pass at the same time.
