Satdump software & wxsat reception

You should have processed images in a folder - whatever you set up. You should get completed images in a folder something like this (maximum size icons)

Yes, found it! Thanx!

As the Meteors are on their winter settings using Infra Red imaging atm some of the "images" will be pretty useless - like the blue ones in my screengrab. They will switch back to summer settings with visible wavelength pictures in March

Oh and you may occasionally get scrambled maps if you get far northerly passes. It looks like two sets of maps overlaid onto one image. Thats a bug in Satdump - its nothing you will have done

A nice one from Meteor 2.310.35 UTC.

I haven't been getting anything good lately, except for this MCIR pass on Meteor M2-3 today, all the others were junk.

Hey Terryl. I can see your house from here



FWIW GOES19 is parked more or less slap bang over the continental USA so gives nice coverage of north & south America.

 

[Terryl]

I can see GOES 19 and 18 from my back yard, but the antenna required for them is a bit expensive**, my SRD dongle will go up to those frequency's, but would loose connections to the meteors.

Not bad for me today.... And with no amplifier.....

 

[Analoguesat]

Very good @wsgrootegast Nice images

Finally a good pass, this one from Meteor M2-4 this morning.

I did crop out some junk from the bottom of the photo.

 

[Terryl]

And another good MSA pass from Meteor M2-4 this morning, and it was a full pass without the need to crop out any junk stuff.

 

[Terryl]

Got a fairly good one today from M2-3, had to crop out some junk, you can see the big storm heading my way from the North late Monday night.

Been out sandbagging the front of the garage, last time a big one like this hit I had 6 inches of water in the garage, good thing I re-made the shelving for an 8 inch level.

 

[Terryl]

I didn't get as much rain as they predicted, only about 1.4 inches and my french drains handled that quite nicely.

Here's a semi good pass on M2-3 from this morning.



I don't know why it looks like a double image.

 

[Terryl]

And another good pass on M2-4, this one from yesterday, no cropping needed.



Looks like some nice weather for this week end.

M 2-4 15.23 EL29.04.

 

[Terryl]

And a good one (well semi good) from M2-4, this is an MSA pass this morning, looks like rain on the horizon.

[Terryl]

The first good pass on ether satellite all week, this one from M2-3, but I'm back to what looks like a double image.

 

[pontiend]

I have not been getting many decent scans recently. Lots of low and wide passes.This is one of the better ones.Not cropped
Meteor 2-4 14:15 EL 86.98

 

[Terryl]

Got a good pass this is afternoon on M2-4, looks like good weather this next few days.
