Over the past 2 months, me and my friend Artem have been building antennas to receive signals from weather satellites as they pass overhead. This video chronicles our progress through this project and goes through some of the science involved in working with radio and receiving transmissions. We explore how dipoles work and how to build them, and how we built our final double cross antenna. We used an SDR (software defined radio) called a HackRF to do the work of interpreting the received signals and then decoded them with some special software. We pulled images from 4 satellites: NOAA 15, 18 and 19 as well as METEOR M2. The satellites broadcast immediately as they take the images and no images are stored, so we're likely the only ones on earth with these images.

Hahahaha, M34T, you're hilarious. Are you a flat earther, or? Also, to note - Americans never used Chinese spacecraft to get to orbit, and the usage of the Soyuz capsule to get to the ISS isn't a bad thing, both Russia and the U.S., along with many other countries were involved in the construction of the ISS, an international project. Space shouldn't be about nationalism.

@Tjthemedic 5 лет назад

Hahahaha, you know NASA isn't just about "taking us to space and leading the way", right? Most of NASA's work is in Earth science, and monitoring weather. And, most U.S. companies, actually, use American companies to send up their satellites, usually with ULA. NASA's budget goes into way more things than whatever it is that you define as "taking us to space and leading the way" - presumably, flashy launches of humans. NASA still continues to launch probes and missions to space, and if you, for some reason, don't care about robotic exploration, they are currently developing and testing multiple methods of launching humans into space, I'd honestly be surprised if you never heard of the Orion capsule or the SLS. Making this some sort of weird nationalistic thing isn't helping anyone.

Great video. Thank you. I built a quadrifilar helix antenna for NOAA satellite reception about 10 years ago and it worked great. One radio project you might want to try is radio meteor detection. I run a system where I listen for meteors using a 20 meter dipole and monitor an out of range TV station. Meteors temporarily ionize the air creating a path that can cause the out of range station to come in for a moment. My system counts and collects data but it is fun to even just listen to the "ping" sounds when monitoring CW or SSB mode especially during a meteor shower.

Hey there, just a quick advice... Instead of wood use if possible MF protective electrical tubing. At least here in europe it is easy to optain in DIY shops and from electro resellers. Wood, especially when wet acts as a conductor. The effect might seem small at first, but when you take in consideration that you are dealing with sub micro volt signals... every single bit counts. Oh and since we're on topic: with the tubes you can also easily build helical antennas. Just wrap your copper around it. It hast a much better suppression of enviromental noise and a far better gain. You could even build an array of four Helicals with a bearable footprint and weight. Contact your local hams, ARRL, DARC and what not. There are always people happy to help you get a hold on this hobby. vy73

@richard-hawley 6 лет назад

Just found this. I actually built a WEFAX radio kit from MAPLIN Electronics back in the early 90s (the kit was called MapSat). It used a cross-dipole and I added a pre-amp to pick up these same NOAA and METEOR weather satallites. the audio went into a DAC box which had cards that slotted in which locked onto the signal parts for the selected format. This then sent signals out to an 8 pin output and passed into a computer via a printer port (or I/O card). I wrote machine code on an Amstrad CPC and Amiga to display them. Had to manually adjust the frequecy (around 135.5 Mhz) to account for doppler shift as the satellite passed over. Good times. Geostationary satellites are much more complicated. But a challenge.

@ab8yy 6 лет назад

Just a comment on this. We are talking about satellites. WEFAX is typically a transmission over HF or Short Wave frequencies. Many programs for satellite decoding will work on WEFAX, but that would be something different. The signal can sound a lot the same, but you would need a short wave receiver and long outside antenna to get the WEFAX signals.

@coriscotupi 5 лет назад

+Steve Smith Exactly. While one can in principle receive satellite imagery with WEFAX, the signals as you said do not come directly from satellites, but are re-broadcast via HF (so, from ground stations). In the early 90s I had great fun with WEFAX. I received mainly Sigwx charts from meteorological stations thousands of km away, using an FSK demodulador connected to the PC's audio card "line in" port and "PC HF Facsimile" software from company called SSC (which unfortunately no longer does business in this weather Rx niche). I consistently got very good, clear images.

The fact that they had to follow the signal source as it moved across the sky AND it produced an image of a large portion of the United States tells us that satellites exist and move very fast. Even the highest flying drone or balloon would not be able to get a single image that large. Plus, if you look at any airplane, you'll notice that its GPS antenna is located on the top of the airplane (in the direction of space) rather than on the bottom (in the direction of some "Earth-based tower").

Hello, With the moon in mind, Where's a 24 live feed of the earth from the moon? There's no way. Where's unbroken dash cam or astronaut helmet footage of a real trip from earth's surface to space? Never. Search "satellites are on balloons". See videos. (Also interesting "ISS HOAX") "Nasa green screens" e.t.c also. Best wishes

Time to do this again after 25yrs or so, I set up the lunchtime weather centre in secondary school, the school had the equipment for a while but didn't know what to do with it. Had a word with the school technician and the head of geography and we installed it the following week. We had several antennas and a dish on rotator, I think that was for the GOES satellites. Always a satisfying sound when the signal started and images appeared. The system is probably still there abandoned and in bits in a cupboard somewhere, would love to have it,particularly the dedicated wideband receiver.

Wayne Johnson wait until we get GOES. we see a full globe. we want to coordinate with people around the world to build up a full 360 globe. the flat earthers are gonna be real mad. But that's for later ;)

@AaronEddieHYo 7 лет назад

Results would be inconclusive. You'd need to be far away to prove the globe, or else you're just custom tailoring a composite image to fit the globe mask.

@kenneththomsen8503 7 лет назад

I'm sure flat earthers believe that these "satellites" are actually just NASA broadcasted signals with fake images! :P

@TheSteveSteele 5 лет назад

Strange Faction They are not experiencing those temperature extremes like you imagine because the molecular density in and above the thermosphere is so little that the satellite might not encounter molecules for the transfer of heat to take place for long periods of time. In other words, something in space only encounters heat when it comes in contact with a molecule, and that is rare is space.

@TheSteveSteele 5 лет назад

FPV Angel What do Zero Gravity (parabolic) flights have to do with passengers in a commercial aircraft flying to different destinations around the world? And no unsupported claims please. You already made one in your last post by claiming “evidence would have to be faked as it always is”. I’m also curious to know what active field research you’re currently involved in concerning this subject.

Just one ham operator could have saved you weeks of trial and error.

@pablotrobo 5 лет назад

I agree that it would be faster and less troublesome but i woud not watch if it was only an aleatory exercise. Learning first hand is different than downloading información from others. Analog to how watching somebody test and experiment is much more interesting than seeing somebody pull together stuff.

The great thing about software-defined radio (or software-defined anything) is that any typical desktop or laptop PC built or bought in the last decade has so much processing power that it can do just about anything that once required a dedicated chip or chipset. Not that dedicated chips aren't better or are no longer used but you'd be surprised what your PC could emulate with the correct software and relevant I/O device. With a TV/radio dongle (£8), a midi keyboard (£45) and a blu-ray drive (£23) I can pick up and enjoy TV, radio and satellite broadcasts, I can make studio-sounding music (though I'm shit at it) or I can play Playstation 3 games. Hell, with a decent graphics card and a VR headset you can now disappear into games like Skyrim and surround yourself with dragons, it's a far cry from the days I was typing code in BASIC on a ZX Spectrum...
