I am releasing Version 1.08 of FoxTelem. This release provides several
enhancements and needed changes for FOX-1E and HuskySat, a partnership with
the University of Washington.
You will need to download this version to successfully decode data from 2
new spacecraft which will transmit BPSK telemetry on 70cm. Oh, and now is
a good time to put up a 70cm antenna if you do not have one :)
You can download it from:

KEY CHANGES
~~~~~~~~~~~
* Make PSK decoders easier to select
* Automatically change the band from 2m to 70cm and the mode from FSK to
PSK
if needed (and enabled). Allow default mode to be set for each spacecraft
* No longer overwrite the user settings (such as max/min frequency) when
spacecraft files updated
* Save the properties whenever they are changed (rather than just at exit)
* Allow the user to change the display name for a spacecraft without
changing
the KEPS name
* Prevent FOXDB from being corrupted when power restarted
* Better memory management so that long running FoxTelem sessions do not
end
up out of memory
* Allow MAX and MIN records to be displayed in table on the telemetry tab.
Show the Capture Date for the record being displayed e.g. RT, MAX, MIN
* Delete existing files when server data downloaded
* Tie the STP date more accurately to the position of the SYNC word in the
bit
buffer to avoid stamping frames with the same date
* Fixed many small bugs and crashes
And many other bug fixes. Full list of changes here:
