[amsat-bb] Help decoding/understanding terrestrial packet heard on ISS freq 145.825 MHz

[Robert Bruninga]

They are probably from PCSAT (NO44) which also acts like a digipeater on
145.825 when sun angles are good.  But PCSAT is *barely alive*.  It can
barely do one or two packet users per pass before the batteries die again
(every orbit).

You can hear PCSAT more than you can decode it, since the batteries are so
weak, they usually cannot even finish a single packet before the TX power
drops off to nothing.  So you never decode bcause  you don't get the valid
checksum at the end.  You might tyry having PASSALL ON...
