This months Practical wireless has a good article on the Global Cube Sat programme and used the FUNcube dongle (designed by G6LVB).

More info can be found at http://www.funcubedongle.com, software for this project includes Rocky, Spectravue, KGKSDR and WR Plus. Also have a look at the Facebook page of Fastrac project which can be found at https://www.facebook.com/fastracsats

If your interested in Satellites then have a look at the website of Mike Rupprecht (DK3WN) which has a vast amount of software http://www.dk3wn.info/software.shtml it is in German but shouldn't be that hard to translate.

SATCONTROL_FCD is exellent...

This is what I've been trying to achieve, been playing around with Orbitron, trying to connect MYDDE with the FCD control app, but no joy writing the wrapper...

Worth nothing that WR Plus has now changed to commercial ware and doesn't work any-more.. so only real option is HDSDR which is nearly the same code base and works fine from here! along with SAT_CONTROL which is ace.
