The Fox Telemetry Decoder allows the user to demodulate, store and analyze telemetry data from AMSAT’s Fox series of Cube Sats. https://www.amsat.org/foxtelem-software-for-windows-mac-linux

Downloading ogg file from observation

On the bottom left of the observation page, click the download audio button.

The downloaded file will have a filename that looks like this: satnogs_ObservationNumber_YYYY-MM-DD-SomeMoreStuff.ogg

Converting SatNOGS ogg file to wav

On a Linux command line, the conversion looks like this:

$sox satnogs_ObservationNumber_YYYY-MM-DD-SomeMoreStuff.ogg ObservationAudio.wav

Uploading wav file into FoxTelem and demodulating

Then start FoxTelem and click the start button and locate the wav file you want to demodulate.
