My Shortwave Dipole Antenna
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.

NXP LA9310: A new platform for SDR and the 10-year-old AD9361 RF Transceiver
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.

Newest satdump compile
Yes, you can use the actions tab to get builds that are automatically built on commits. (you gotta be logged in) https://github.com/altillimity/SatDump/actions

Meteor images with Satdump
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!

Need help installing WXTOIMG in linux
you could just get this decoder which can decode nearly anything and is easy to use.

Receiving Weather Satellite Images Using SatDump
GOES sats are geostationary but the NOAA APT satellites are encircling the planet and you can pick them up. Old tutorial but still relevant, just use "noaa-apt" tool[0] instead of WXtoImg. https://www.rtl-sdr.com/rtl-sdr-tutorial-receiving-noaa-weat...

- Hi 2
- SDR# and NOAA Satellites
- Made a very simple 137 MHz dipole V antenna, made out of copper brazing rods and a terminal block and this is the first picture of NOAA 18 I got from it, also it picks up 250 MHz Satcom pirate transmissions rather well. Much better than my pa0rdt antenna which adds a bunch of noise!
-
Why the image is so small?
Sometimes WXtoIMG just discards parts of the recoding when the signal wasn't strong enough. In those cases I've had some luck running the recorded .wav file through noaa-apt to get the full image.

Images pulled with RTL-SDR antenna NOAA
so the NOAA_APT decoder link on your guide did not work properly, By chance did you mean this link https://noaa-apt.mbernardi.com.ar/?
-
At least as long as they're not using the dev container...
So far I only use it for noaa-apt program though.

WXtoImg not decoding images
Had this exact problem, the thing that I found is that GQRX records at the wrong sample rate, which WXtoImg can’t handle. However, https://noaa-apt.mbernardi.com.ar this utility did work for me. I’ll also note that WFM is the setting I use in GQRX, not AM

Does anyone know whats happening here?
You should try noaa-apt too, it usually gives better results for me.
