Unfortunately !!!

Now also from RS51S and RS67S.

It’s a GFSK9k6 - AX.25 (Geoscan framing). We have a SoundModem available for this…Download HERE

Hi I have tried this but the modem does not work, what am I doing wrong?

This gap should not be.
Turn off filters and equalizers.


all off

I have tried all baud rates to

Check the virtual audio cable settings, input device in sound modem, audio settings and sample rate.

@EU1SAT thanks for your help btw

Right I’ve played around with the band width and had to select wide FM and adjust it to 16.6Hz for it to detect the telemetry which works fine and a partial image.

My other issue is poor signal and only being able to read some of the data.

Here’s what I’ve got so far.

Turn off second channel on SoundModem.
Have you got rid of a gap?

I’ve tried many combinations with it of/off different band width and so on but no full picture I think its down to a poor quality signal being received.

This is all I have been able to decode




This image(RTU-MIREA-1) was taken in JAPAN.

The image with blue background consists of 762 packets.
It only needs a few packets to let the image look pretty distorted.
