Default Re: Russian navigation satellites

Okay, well thanks to that info and a bit of deduction we now have an application that decodes all of the data. In the picture below you can see that the satellite being received (it was Cosmos 2407) is sending blocks of Keplerian orbital data- the ephemeris- for the various satellites in the system.

When the web article is finished, the application will be available to download and use free for both Windows and Linux from my website.

Thanks all; yet again, the members of this forum have come up with the goods!

Best regards
Alan
