Thank you for your contribution!
However, the minimodem is an FSK modulator/demodulator (including RTTY), while the AS RTU (AO-123) on the Asrtu Friendship satellite seems to be using BPSK.
I looked at the usage instructions for fsphil/ssdv. Is it possible to understand that, if I can find a way to convert the satellite-downlink signal (regardless of the modulation method used) back into binary data containing SSDV packets, then I can simply feed this data into the fsphil/ssdv program and it will reconstruct the JPEG image?
