Corby A rare day when I can answer one of your questions. Usually the other way around. All of the phase tracking receivers will not lock to the new BPSK format without considerable modification. I have release a few to time-nuts here in the past. They involve costas loops and frequency doubling etc. there should also be a fairly digital approach though that success eludes me. As for the big bucks its that auction site, normal business. I remember the completely useless truetime dc468 sat receivers and the silly $ going on for them. Wonder who ever buys that stuff.
