[amsat-bb] AO-73 Telemeter

[Hasan al-Basri]

I get the best centered decodes on the SDR at 145.933.200

That holds nicely with the doppler corrections being applied by SDR Console
v 3.03

Rx with M2 Eggbeater at 7' and get about 100 frames every decent pass..

I do many unattended passes and get TLM from AO-73 just fine.
