A video about decoding satellite images, first image on the video is NOAA-19 toppled over. Really love this guy! I really need to subscribe lol

@gkprivate433 4 года назад

I worked at the AF weather program office in Los Angeles AFB El Segundo, spent a lot of time at Offutt AFB at Air Force Global Weather. I had a "friend" send me a photo of that toppled satellite before it was leaked out to the media. Really was a bunch of silly procedural mistakes and shortcuts that costs lots of millions and the incident happened at just about the worst time, after the payload had been fully assembled and passed all its environmental, vibration, acoustic, temperature cycle testing.

@micsherwood4930 3 года назад

Could you do a video on your setting for either SDRsharp or SDRuno? I just can not get either to look and run as yours do in this video.

@simongains1793 4 года назад

Tried it today for the first time using a Yaesu ft817 and colinear antenna. Rough results but a start. Many thanks for the video!

You’re welcome Simon! It’s a great hobby!

@505Innovation 4 года назад

I'm getting excellent results from a QFH antenna I made from copper tubing fed into an NESDR through 50 feet of RG58. Good luck. PS make sure your bandwidth is set wide enough to capture the entire signal or it will turn out grainy. For me, I had to set it 96kHz wide.

@crypto.7562 4 года назад

u can also go to recording options and set the soundcard to vb audio

@nimrodquimbus912 5 лет назад

Oh ok, I was looking at the links on the bottom.....nice set up, thanks for the videos.

@gary6212 Год назад

How do you set this up long-term without manually changing the frequency on SDRUno for each sat pass? Seems like we would need to parse the sat pass list and then create a corresponding scheduled task inside SDRUno's task scheduler so that SDRUno will be on the correct frequency/mode for each auto record in WXtoImg.

@CE4JDM Год назад

Is there any way to receive images from NOAA-20 and/or NOAA-21?

@joeb3300 Год назад

I didn't see how any Doppler corrections were made. It would be really cool of WXtoIMG, knowing the receiver location and the trajectory of the satellite, could adjust to SDR center freq.

@Partymuffel223 Год назад

You can do doppler correction with satellite tracking software. GPredict has a plugin for SDR# that interfaces with your SDR, changing frequency while the satellite is passing over.

@ethanmccrory1727 4 года назад

Hi, I a trying to download from the NOAA satellites but need an antenna. I have an SDR dongle but now sure which antenna to get. Please could you link to an ebay or amazon page to where I can purchase one? Thanks

@TechMindsOfficial 4 года назад

I used a dual band 2/70 Homebase antenna when I done my testing, and although it’s not ideal it did work when the satellite was over head. What you really need is a QFH antenna, but not sure if you can purchase them cheaply. I’m planning on making a video on making a QFH antenna very soon.

Can we use satellite TV dish antenna Which is like a big circular plate??

@TechMindsOfficial 5 лет назад

Not really, those kind of dishes are directional, plus the LNB would most likely not cover 137Mhz. The other issue is that the weather Sats are not fixed, which means they move across the sky, so you would need to move the dish as it flys by. I'll be doing a video soon on how to MAKE a homebrew antenna for receiving Weather Sats efficiently. :-)

@g1egz 8 месяцев назад

Not that lm being picky, but that sat is noaa 15, which is 137.620 mhz, and it shows on the screen as noaa 15; so, ?

@snorlax905 4 года назад

Can you do this with an indoor antenna ?

@TechMindsOfficial 4 года назад

You’d probably have to wait for a pass directly overhead and maybe even use a QFH antenna, but, try with what you have first 👍

@CoolKoon 4 года назад

No, you can't. You can see it from the video that even outdoor reception suffers from dropouts unless professional equipment is used.

Yes, wxtoimg did not change to get to file with celestrax, and when you update, it can’t find them, you have to get a patch, which does something called a proxy? Fix, don’t ask me, lol, but celestrax changed their name, and space org didn’t change the link either,
