[amsat-bb] New Telemetry Decoder for FalconSat-3

[Graham]

thank you everyone for your suggestions.

I followed a couple more passes and it seems that I just don't have 
sufficient signal level - enough to clearly see and track the signal 
that would be good enough for the UK funcube signals but not enough for 9k6.

Other than that the decoding software and hs-soundmodem all work well 
together.

I took a look at the passes I would see and I get only one per day where 
the highest elevation gets as high as 17 degrees, the remainder are all 
12 degrees or less.

I have a dual band vertical mounted at roof top level and I may give 
that a try but unfortunately it doesn't have a mast head pre-amp but I 
can put a pre-amp in line near the radio which may help.

too much snow on the ground and on the roof; it will be a couple of 
months before I can get to any real antenna work.

cheers, Graham ve3gtc
