[amsat-bb] Crew packing Cygnus for departure (and launch of HuskySat)

[Chris Thompson]

You should not get a spacecraft error.  What does the error look like?  If
you have an old spacecraft file that has _em in the name, then it is the
old engineering model.  You should delete that.

The main change is that you need to be listening on 70cms and the decoder
needs to be set to one of the PSK decoders.  You can make it automatically
listen to HuskySat if you check the box "Switch bands and modes".  Note
this is the first time we will have tested that, so report any issues you
see.  If you are listening to the Fox sats as well, then it would assume
you have a dual band antenna setup, which is not normal for many.  I
personally have setup another machine with a separate SDR listening to
70cms.  Note that this may work better through a real radio than the Fox
satellites because it does not have the filtering issues for low frequency
audio.  So that is an option.

I understand that the KEPS are available and we are trying to see if they
will be published.  HuskySat have a facebook page and it may appear there
first.
