Switching the feed to a commercially available log periodic antenna worked much better, with some partial decodes of weather map data. Actually, getting anything at all with a setup like this is impressive enough for us to call it a win. It shows that the umbrella approach to antennas is ...
Over on theThought EmporiumYouTube channel the team have uploaded two videos that may be of interest to radio hobbyists. The first video shows a nice overview about receiving NOAA weather satellite images. They explain everything from scratch for complete novice, so the videos are great for alm...
WXtoImg is a free weather satellite decoding program which can decode the APT signal, and also tell you the times and frequencies of the NOAA satellites passing overhead. There is also apaidversion of WXtoImg which can unlock more features, however it is not required for use with RTL-SDR. ...
beyond making the TV work. But many of the satellites in orbit aren't just used for TV broadcasts. From weather imaging, to collecting science data, to relaying information between probes throughout our solar system, to telecommunications, to GPS, satellites are...
The additional profiler sites included in the simulation are shown in the map below as New CAP (Cooperative Agency Profiler) and New NOAA Profiler sites. The study used a long, uninterrupted forecast by the European Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasts in February 1993 that provided boundary...
There are 15 charts total and are broken down by geographical region. These charts provide a lot of marine weather related information including frequencies, schedules and locations of stations disseminating NWS products. They also contain additional weather information of interest to the mariner. ...
The satellite has multiple payloads that provide measurements of the magnetic field and electromagnetic waves at extremely low (ELF) and very low frequencies (VLF) [15,16,17]. The particle detectors instead are focused on the detection of protons, electrons, and heavy nuclei and are the HEPD...
clarity of display, only two months (1 September through 1 November 2016) of the entire 1-year comparison are displayed. The model and data exhibit favorable agreement in both tidal and subtidal frequencies. The RMSE at the four stations were 7.9 cm, 8.1 cm, 8.5 cm, and 7.6 cm, ...
