Hi,
I have recently got into doing the SDR, i have been using the both the
tvrx and wbx daughter boards for communicating with the ham radio at
435.300Mhz. I am not too good at python so i use GRC. However when i try
to receive from the voice from the AO-51 satellite at the same 435.3Mhz
frequency i dont get anything. Any comments or suggestions are appreciated.
Please take a look at
http://www.amsat.org/amsat-new/satellites/status.php
AO51 seems to work as a repeater/transverter, it never resends the input
at the same frequency/band. Very common is to have the uplink on
2m=145MHz and the downlink on 70cm=435MHz. This is called V/U-mode. You
can find details and the current status at the link above.
Please also take Doppler shift into account, this is not big
show-stopper at FM, but be prepared to retune sometimes. You will see
the Doppler shift if you use a waterfall display.
The easiest to start is to listen first. It's very probable that you
will hear some conversation during a pass.
