Astrocast telemetry

great thanks to Dani, EA4GPZ for new gr-satellite decoder :-)

The content of the GNSS part of the beacon message consists of a GPRMC NMEA 0183 message with the format given below using an example:

$GPRMC,220516.38,A,5133.82,N,02311.12,W,13606,054.7,270816,020.3,W*

The telemetry portion of the beacon contains a comma-separated list of text values of selected housekeeping parameters. The parameters values are already calibrated to SI units and only required minimal conversion or interpretation:

$HK,0x05A2008C6510,3.112,773,9,-82,-32258,0xFC*
