Hi Tom,
There will be an article coming up in the AMSAT Journal on work that W1GHZ,
W1FKF and I have done on tapping the common IF in the FT-817 and using the
FunCube as a Panadapter. Our primary application is weak signal microwave.
I would think it would work well for satellite. That way your software would
be controlling an FT-817. The common IF is centered on 68.33 MHz in the
FT-817, so you see +/- 40 kHz around that. You would be able to take
advantage of all the front end filtering in the FT-817.

I am close to a SatPC32 <-> dongle system but there is probably
someone with a much better 'simple' or even a 'very simple' solution.
I would be very interested in hearing from anyone who has actually
achieved fully synchronized doppler corrected transmit control with a
dongle for the receiver. A reply offline would be best to prevent
flames.
