Working #Greencube #satellite using #linux is maybe a step too far for me (for now!). On the plus side from about 25 degrees elevation upward, I could decode every packet I could hear. As for problems... Although #UZ7HO soundmodem works fine under #wine (even with my USB sound card!), it only supports PTT over COM ports (whereas I TX using CAT) - solved by using VOX. Then Gpredict for some reason wanted to set a 2m frequency for uplink. OK, I could manually correct Dopler (but only on RX).

Just had my first successful two-way pass on #greencube #io117! Took me some attempts until everything was configured correctly, but now it worked FB with 10 elem Arrow and 10W of my IC-705 - portable! Tnx fer qso , @2m0sql and 8 more :) will write a blog post about config

Very little activity on #satellite RS-44 around 23:15Z, rather unusual for beginning of weekend. I wonder if all the cool kids escaped to #GreenCube nowadays.

Hello,
Are there any Terminal Node Controller, #TNC software to decode #greencube for #Mac #MacOS ?

Turns out one can decode a few #Greencube #IO117 packets even using a mere turnstile antenna (+ a cheap SPF5819Z module as a preamp) if the bird is higher than around 45º elevation.
(timings in this screenshot are off by about 1/2h due to this being played from a recording I'd made earlier on)
