A note on using GLRPT - currently there aren't any satellites up with functioning LRPT transmissions. Hopefully this year Russia will get another Meteor satellite up and we can start receiving LRPT signals again. Also you may find it more convenient to use SatDump for working some satellites as it connects directly to the SDR without needing GQRX and a virtual audio cable.

If you can provide a board to Alan, the lead dev of SatDump (https://github.com/SatDump/SatDump) to ensure compatability I'll 100% buy this board.
guides/help for decoding meteor 2 images with a rtl-sdr

I just use Satdump. You can either record in something like SDRSharp and do offline decoding in Satdump or do live decoding in Satdump. I run it on my Windows 10 laptop with no issues.

Meteor images with Satdump
1 project | /r/RTLSDR | 13 Nov 2021

Hi, im trying to use the satdump program to get the images from meteor. Does anyone know what sample rate and format (i16, i8, f32) i should use for the baseband recording for this? does anyone know a tutorial to the meteor images with the satdump program?
I don't normally share NOAA images, but, these were worthy of a post!

Meteor Demodulator Plugin Help

No problem. Quite a lot has happened with regards to software the last year or so. I actually don't remember if satdump corrects the image. If not, you can use smooth meteor or this script which I have used for some time. It's faster and results in a more detailed image: https://github.com/Xerbo/meteor_corrector

The inspiration for this came from FL Studio's Patcher, in which I've made this exact thing and it sounds awesome when paired with the right instruments.
