[amsat-bb] FoxTelem 1.07y Update

I'm not sure how long it's been, but I figured I'd give an update on my
FoxTelem 1.07y experience.

I upgraded to 1.07y a few days after it was released, and was previously
running 1.06r.   My station is pretty simple, just a 3/4 wave vertical in
my attic (with 4 radials), running to a FCDP+ plugged into a RasPi 3B.

My decode rate has gone up by about 25 to 50 percent (was averaging about
50 to 75 frames a day, now getting about 70 to 100 per day).

But more impressive (to me) is that it seems much more stable.   It used to
crash about once a month, and since updating to 1.07y I cannot recall a
single crash occurrence (although I have had to stop/start it a couple of
times for unrelated reasons).

2 thumbs up to the FoxTelem Team!
