Good to know you *almost* demodulated it successfully with WBX. I rather doubt that I'll be able to get to my groups 60ft dish before the topic becomes uninteresting :-( But I do have a 70cm YAGI in my store-room somewhere, perhaps I shall dig it out, and wait for a pass over my city to see if I can demodulate the signal! -- Principal Investigator Shirleys Bay Radio Astronomy Consortium http://www.sbrac.org _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
