MeteorGIS 2.24 MeteorGIS is a free program for referencing images send by the Russian weather satellite Meteor MN-2 & MN-2.2 More info at bottom of this page as well.LRPT Image Processor – another Meteor image processor It is available here: LRPT Image Processor.Smooth Meteor – for color correcting and rectifying (correcting shape) of Meteor Imagery.All audio signals coming in the CABLE input is transported to the CABLE output. VBCable is a virtual audio device working as a virtual audio cable.I also utilize the following plugins necessary to track and demodulate the signals received by SDR#

I have a build sheet PDF here It originally came from the Tinhat Ranch site, and I have modified it with the original author’s permission. Since the QFH antenna is stationary, Oribtron sends commands to SDR# and adjusts the frequency of the receiver to adjust for the doppler shift, as the selected satellite whizzes past at about 17,000 MPH (27358 KPH). The solution is to build an antenna that is properly polarized in all directions, hence the QFH antenna. When you have a satellite orbiting the earth, even if the antenna is pointed straight down, its polarization to you on earth will change as it goes from horizon to horizon. Why such a bizarre-looking construct? Here is a simple explanation- Antennas perform best when they are properly polarized, or the antennas are pointed in the same direction in three-dimensional space. See my system diagram here.įor an antenna, I have found that this antenna, which is called a QFH (Quadrifilar Helix Antenna) antenna, which you can build yourself with plumbing parts, is suitable and works great. I also use a Nooelec Sawbird+ LNA for NOAA APT (LNA Low Noise Amplifier, in this case, tuned to 137 Mhz). (Note the RTL-SDR Blog site is overflowing with useful information).

In fact, I control the whole computer system remotely from either my main desktop computer or my smartphone utilizing Google Remote Desktopįor Hardware I am running an older desktop computer, running Windows 10 64bit with a 3.20 GHz processor and 4GB ram with a UPS battery backup, and the following USB RTL-SDR dongles and accessories:įor APT and LRPT Imagery hardware, I use a Nooelec SmarteeXTR dongle and/or a RTL-SDR Blog V3 dongle. It only takes minimal effort to check the system from time to time. I have my system up and running 24/7, and have both Meteor captures and NOAA captures all set to run automatically with the hardware and software listed below. Currently, I receive from these Polar-Orbiting Satellites, US NOAA 15,18, and 19, and Russian Meteor M-2 and M2-2 Transmits via LRPT (Low Rate Picture Transmission) and HRPT (High Rate Picture Transmission) NOTE M2-2 is currently experiencing an anomaly, and is not transmitting on APT frequencies (a possible micrometeorite strike). A user station anywhere in the world can receive local data at least twice a day from each satellite as it passes nearly overhead. It was introduced in the 1960s and over five decades has provided image data to relatively low-cost user stations at locations in most countries of the world. The Automatic Picture Transmission ( APT) system is an analog image transmission system developed for use on weather satellites. Building Wide Area Composites with WXtoImg.
