The main problem seems to be a CW interference near the signal, which messes up the FLL. Therefore, disabling the FLL seems a must to decode anything in this recording.

I found that the following parameters seem to work best:

gr_satellites INSPIRE-SAT_7.yml --wavfile iq_76800_7418742.wav --iq --samp_rate 76800 --f_offset 1150 --disable_fll --clk_bw 0.1 --costas_bw 200

This will give you between 2 and 6 decoded frames (for some reason the results are not deterministic).
