I just succeed testing the DELFI C3 decoding program using WIN XP.

You should start the recorder playback first and RASCALS after (the reverse way will not work)
It seems the decoding data has been uploaded to the DELFI server in real time?
I got some out of sync flags but i fear the results under heavy doppler/QSB  conditions... Will see!

A very nice program overall and i hope all will be going as planned. It will be a cube's launch orgy and i read somewhere they are going in 

space for 75000$ including launch cost but battery not included...

A slightly bigger cube with a booster motor is something feasible? a reborn AO-7? in the long desert walk running for the HEO mirage even 
the smallest drop of hope  worth as much than a drop of gas.

It will be great if the launch can be broadcasted over the internet.

Thank's Kumara
