[amsat-bb] AO-73 Telemetry Question

[Jerry Buxton]

Tom,

I recall in conversation with one of our Fox Team who was using an SDR 
application that MIGHT have been HDSDR, that the I-Q can be inverted.  I 
don't know if it's a setting or what, I don't use HDSDR software and as 
I said I'm not sure he was using HDSDR.  But it might be worth a look to 
see if you have such an option and switch it to see what happens.
