MASAT-1 (MO-72) Team Releases Software

The MASAT-1 team said this week that updated client software for
telemetry reception and decoding is available on their web at:
http://cubesat.bme.hu/en/radioamatoroknek/kliens-szoftver/

Some of the upgrades include:
+ The “Offline” label removed, the status of the automatic
packet reporting is displayed.

+ Battery voltage constant (on the EPS panel) updated.

+ User selection between 626/1250 bps decoding.

+ The waterfall display shows tracks for the 0, CW and 1. The
decoder has been reported to be most successful if tuning is
set upward by 50-100 Hz from the tuning indicators. User
experiences are invited to be sent to mezei@cubesat.bme.hu.

The automated received packet upload from the client software has
been updated to accept ham@cubesat.bme.hu or a@a.a as mail address
for those not wishing to send their actual address. Users can change
the e-mail address by editing the registration.txt file in the pro-
gram folder of the software package.

A statistics web page reporting on the numbers of packets forwarded
by amateur radio operators has been added:
http://cubesat.bme.hu/en/radioamatoroknek/veteli-statisztika/
The site has successfully received over 50000 packets from around
the world. The latest updates to the web and client software should
address initial concerns that ‘no packets’ have been received.

The MASAT-1 team thanks amateur radio operators for your outstanding
support. The MASAT-1 Important News for Radio Amateurs page is at:
