does the predict program provide Doppler offset information to the stick during the pass? - the setup guide mentions 20 degrees minimum elevation, which may be a little pessimistic, but I can't see where to change that. (Actually that stick has a 1 ppm TCXO with max 2 ppm initial offset, so about 280 Hz at 140 MHz, so likely can be ignored). I now have this running but with a number of issues: - Whilst I have yet to check the offset of the RTL-SDR.COM v3 stick which I have, is there an option somewhere to enter the PPM error. Good luck Jim = Jim, Jeff, Fred, Thanks for your suggestion and encouragement.

It holds about 6 months of images from all three NOAA birds. I added a USB stick as my image data drive.

Nice to go from a 1998 Windows 2000 PC (how many watts consumption?) to a 5 watt Raspberry Pi!Р”В®mail: I too have been using the instructables link that Jeff and Fred shared for over a year now without a problem. I'm getting a 128 GB memory stick for the processed data - it will be the first time I've added external storage to an RPi. I've already used SAMBA to set up a share from the RPi to allow Windows to access the data.

One of the niceties of having the wave file stored, and having both Windows and Linux versions of the software is that I will be able to play with the enhancements off-line in a more friendly environment (for me) and without disrupting the data collection. Thanks for the multi-processing you mention for the 'receive_and_process_satellite.sh' file. I wonder whether anyone has played with the gain setting at all, or just leaving it as automatic? It seems that Doppler is ignored in this approach. I think you are saying you would also ignore such a small ppm (rather than you saying you ignore removing the '-p 55')!Р”Р„greed that 'predict' is just used to generate the time, type and, frequency schedule. I found that setting the PPM correctly produced a very much better image than one with the 5.7 kHz offset the example -p 55 produced.

I'm using an Uputronics pre-amp and 4-way Mini-Circuits splitter (eBay) to share the antenna between two receivers - one Airspy for Meteor, and one RTL_SDR.COM v3 for APT. Most solutions are tied to the RTL-SDR class of receiver, and here something better is needed. Yes, Jeff, that tempts me, although I have Meteor decoding running as I want on a Windows system where I can use the Airspy HF+ Discovery for best dynamic range performance. Once you have this running well - you might want to consider a Meteor M2 Raspberry Pi system:
