Hi Patrik,
Thanks for the reply. I have been using the usrp_wbfm_rcv.py receiver
found in the examples directory. and the antenna is a YA450-14.7-24 i
have attached a picture of the antenna.Should I be using a broadband
preamp or can i do without it?Do you find any  problem with what i have
been doing?
Thanks & Regards,Naveen.

Hi Naveen,
Â
Which receiver are you using? I use the usrp_nbfm_rcv.py
receiver found in the examples directory
It seems to be transmitting at the moment @ 435.300
MHz, http://www.amsat.org/amsat-new/echo/CTNews.php

What antenna are you using?

  Hi,


    I have recently got into doing the SDR, i have been using the

both
the tvrx and wbx daughter boards for communicating with the ham
radio at
435.300Mhz. I am not too good at python so i use GRC. However
when i try
to receive from the voice from the AO-51 satellite at the same
435.3Mhz
frequency i dont get anything. Any comments or suggestions are
appreciated.

    Thanks & Regards,
    Naveen

Hi Naveen,

That antenna(s) should work. If the coax is more than 5 m I recommend
you get a cheap TV pre-amp, ~30 eur.
You should use the narrowband FM receiver and NOT the wideband found in
the examples.

Here is the ECHO linkbudget

Just uploaded a new AO-51 recording to
http://noaaport.poes-weather.com:8081/AO-51/

The antenna I use is here Loading...
cost < 15 eur
