SatGate update - from Nov 2020

After some additional tweaking and, most recently, using my mobile phone as a hotspot and hoping to benefit from a faster upload link; I have managed to get another ISS packet I-gated/SatGated successfully.

Unfortunately, the bulk of the packets are seen as duplicates and although I can see inherently why they are ... although I've asked questions in a number of places, so far I am not sure as to how I can improve the speed/reliability of the I-gating process.

Here's my second, out of many attempts, at relaying an ISS packet to the Internet. This particular pass elicited 12 successfully received and I-gated packets of which 11 were discarded.

I think location and compromised antenna conditions mean that this is not quite ready to be set-up on a permanent basis.
