[amsat-bb] TS-2000 and 9600 baud Sats

[Scott]

Bugsat-1 is one of the stronger cubesats that I have copied telemetry from and it uses 9k6.

Details are:  437.445 MHz FM 9k6 FSK AX.25

  Would you happen to have a recent set of keps for Unisat-6? Searched 
  Celestrak for catalog  # 40012, but haven't found it yet.

  Yes, I've had great results decoding XW-2F with the Funcube Dongle and 
  UZ7HO's 9k6 modem. The problem is that I haven't been able to do the 
  same with the Kenwood TS-2000 and SCS Tracker modem which is G3RUH / 
  GMSK compatible.

  Any other reliable 9600 baud sats on your list?

  Thanks
