Decoding Data Packets From the International Space Station
June 21, 2014
On June 19th I set up my Kenwood HT paired with a magnet mount antenna in the driveway, tuned the radio to 145.825 and listened to data packets from the International Space Station magically flow through the radio's speaker as ISS flew overhead.
During a period of three minutes of time, 22 data packets were recorded. I used my iPhone placed next to the handheld's speaker as a recording device.
The audio can be listened to here, and the decoded packet information is displayed below.
