Quite a lot of what we do in science requires to be as low tech as possible for some stuff (I am an oceanographer), that is because it has to be something that people, not only scientists, can do. If you keep adding more stuff not only complicates things but also increases the chance that a part will go wrong and it won't work. I would guess that's why the "keep it simple, stupid" exists.
I did this some years ago. I ordered a kit from Hamtronics, an R139. 6 channels between 137-138 MHz. I eventually built a QFH antenna and was delighted with the results. That was way long before SDRs were a thing.
I'm still using my R139 and WXtoImg. Was fortunate enough years ago to get a Quorum dedicated WX Satellite antenna with a built-in preamp powered over the coax. When Celestrak changed their domain name my Mac version of WXtoImg was no longer able to grab the Keps from the app but I've found a work-around to get them into the program. I'm as amazed with every pass as I was the very first time I did this and never get tired of it! 73 - Dino KLØS
This was my gateway into getting licensed I got hooked on getting NOAA images and realized I could get licensed and talk back to some satellites. It's such an amazing hobby. Great videos!
@@Veslanjejezivot There are many satellites that act as repeaters, so you can talk to other amateur radio operators all over the world through them. In fact the ISS has an amateur radio repeater on it, and on (albeit rare) occasion, you can even talk to an astronaut on the ISS.
@@Dusty_Ham thank you for sharing. I was hearing ISS for the first time now since my HAM radio saga start because I was tuning on the wrong frequency (145.800) and should've used 437.800
Can you show me a picture of a real active satellite and orbit? Since we have the technology to see stars from Earth that are 1000 miles away. But don't have any pictures of active satellites
Thank you very much for the detailed step by step guide, you are quickly becoming one of my most favored content creators on the internet. Your use of "throwaway" gear such as that laptop proves that a budget constraint may not really be the dead end that many people fear it is when it comes to learning and exercising skills in this field. Appreciatory valve: wide open.
Man uses computers to yell at sky robots. In all seriousness, it's really neat. I appreciate you being open with the information and making tutorial videos, thanks.
yeah people keep confusing receiving with transmitting which is understandable cause in most telecommunications you use on the daily, you do both, but it leads to many people thinking you need a permit to listen to some of these things, when they're just broadcast everywhere w/out much care to encrypt them
Thanks for putting this video together. You answered a lot of my questions and REALLY helped demystify a few of the things I was thoroughly overthinking. Awesome man thanks
I have (had!) zero interest in doing this and don't quite know why RUclips recommended it to me! But thank you for producing a well-explained primer that never forgot its intended audience's newbie status and was thus pitched perfectly. You also managed to throw in some summary stuff about more advanced ways to do things, thereby whetting the apetites of any newbie who was wondering if this might be interesting. Seriously: you covered the basics well whilst enticing with some more advanced stuff, lightly glossed over. That's pretty much how tutorials on any given subject *ought* to be done, but very seldom are. So, kudos and thanks.
The last few days I have been using a baofeng and a homemade v dipole to pick up NOAA. I have had pretty good success. Your videos are what inspired me to try this.
Whats the trick to get the right bandwith, since LRTPT is at least 40kilo wide? Does this work just by feeding audio line in whatever recorder/ audacity etc? Recording to phone wasnt good enough :( Best results I was able to get were acquired with V dipole and HackRF.
@@JanicekTrnecka I don't really know, maybe my cheap Baofeng has poor frequency control which makes it receive over a wide bandwidth. I also am using a cheap usb sound card which probably helps with the image clarity. I just modified the headset to have an audio output jack.
Thanks for the how-to video. For someone like myself with an engineering background, but never had the time or patience to explore the reception of weather satellite data, I really appreciated your video. Before retiring as a hardware design engineer, I worked designing primary instruments on weather satellites but never considered actually receiving data from an instruments I had a part in their development. Many thanks again!
Great tutorial for all of us beginners! Extra points for dumpster laptop :) You are awesome, thanks for your passion and the will to share it with the world. Never stop man!
This was fantastic. I never knew the public could access and/or decode signals from these Sats. This would be a great family project or school project. Thanks for a great video!
Was really inspired to do this a while back because of your original videos. I struggled like hell at first but I loved the process. Wish I had this video sooner hopefully more people get into this hobby. I use SDR Sharp and NOAA APT for decoding. I had a terrible time trying to get WXtolmg working. Going to try satdump next.
Been wanting to do this for a while ever since I saw your original video 2 years ago. Finally got around to putting everything together and recorded/decoded my first successful picture today! Keep up the great work!
Greetings from Yorkshire, England. Bloody brilliant, cheers mate. Before tonight I'd not heard of SDR. So much technical stuff surrounding the subject (understandably). I've watched maybe 10 tutorials and although they were relatively informative much of the information went over my head. I'm very much a understand it from the ground up type of person through messing about with it and I'm glad to have happened upon your channel. Just watched the video you did were you built your own antenna then this one. Just using a scanner and recording the data stream on your phone is (MacGyver) brilliant and it's actually given me a better insight/understanding than the other 10 videos combined. You've inspired me to have a go myself. I appreciate that. Credit where its due. 👏👍
I've definitely found it helpful to watch / read multiple sources for a lot of this stuff. Sometimes people (myself included) take stuff for granted and gloss over important details!
@@saveitforparts I appreciate your approach, for a lay person like myself the technical stuff slots into place after getting my hands dirty on a project. I wasn't even aware that you could access the information from weather satellites without maybe being a part of an organisation and with expensive equipment. Of course it makes sense when I think about it, the science isn't new and I know our tech develops but we've been transmitting information this way for quite a while now and when I think about the voyager probes over bloody vast distances. Anyways, looking forward to watching some more of your experiments.
I am not gonna lie, I had no idea how I even ended up on this video today. However, this video was so informative and honestly amazing, on a topic I didn't even know I found interesting. I went down a rabbit hole after this to watch more of your videos and others similar. Thank you.
Thank you for your well thought out succinct video. Just got my very first image a few minutes ago and I could not be happier! Your videos are what got me into radio - much appreciated!
I've been interested in getting into this for a while and my rtl-sdr is in the mail as we speak. This guide came at the perfect time for me! Thank you!
Thank you for the tutorial. Most excellent. I've connected my old Bearcat BC200XLT with it's rubber ducky, plugged the earphone jack into my video camera''s audio in. I recorded the audio wilst trying to visually locate NOAA19. Visually tracking didn't go well, but certainly got the audio recorded. Dumped audio into Audacity converted it to a 11025Hz file, then trimmed to the strongest cleanest portion of the signal. I popped that .WAV file into WXtoIMG and got a pretty decent image of the Gulfcoast (I'm in Central Texas). I know automating could make it a little more set and forget, but the act of hunting for the signal and the whole challenge in general was a great deal of fun for me. I tried NOAA 15. Not so good of a result. I might need a 2m yagi to better track those more finicky signals. Thanks again.
You are the man, I bought an SDR a year ago and thanks to your video have finally gotten it set up and working on FM. This weekend I am going to DIY up a dipole from rabbit ears for airplane tracking. Thanks to this video, next stop will be NOAA
40 minutes ago i didn't even know i wanted to do this...and yet you have answered all the questions that have come up so far. Thank you so much for that :)
maaaaaaaaaaaaaaan, you made again excited about ham radio and listening to ISS and sattelites, great work, love your content, keep it up and have fun!!! THANK YOU!!!
OK this channel is awesome. I love DIY and I dropped out of engineering school to follow my dream of being a Chef (I didn't say I was smart). I am the only chef I know with an electronics bench complete with oscilloscope, power supply and function generator lol! Not to mention a box of Arduino's, some loaded with long forgotten sketches.. I'm ready to check this stuff out, I've been wanting to get into raspberry pi and Linux, and it looks pretty cheap to get started. This makes me excited about the possibility of downloading satellite images even with my limited proficiency! Thanks!!! I've been watching a lot of your content. Whether it's satellites or Sandland, I love how you are always slightly smiling.
Just wanted to thank you for all the time and effort you put into this! While I'm a hobbyist with RaspberryPis, Python, etc, capturing weather satellite information is brand new to me and I thought you did a fantastic introductory video on it! Will definitely be subscribing to your channel!
I watched this about 6 weeks ago. Fast forward to today and I have a really nice Double Cross Antenna capturing some great NOAA APT images! I'm now gearing up for some NOAA HRPT ones! Thanks for the introduction 😀
I’ve gotta say, I have learned so much watching your videos. I love watching your videos, they purely entertain me, keep up the fantastic work and content!!
Glad to hear it! Usually I'm learning as I do the videos, so I don't always feel like the best teacher for some things. Occasionally I try to do a how-to type video once I'm confident in my process.
I tried and gave up on the 'more painful' approach a few years ago. Your vid is a new inspiration! I want to build a simple Uda-Yagi style antenna (for 137M-138M) to use on a ball-head on a tripod which will allow (approx) tracking of the sat trajectory. With that and a coordinated Doppler adjustment it should provide a very strong signal. Great vid !!
I've been interested in the satellite decoding since back in the day when I used to communicate with the MIR space station, I think you just rekindled that enthusiasm for me with your video.
Nice video! Its so cool to see how much your knowledge has progressed. You have gone from learning to presenting it in a very succinct and knowledgeable manner. Makes me want to start playing around more with SDRs... keep up the great content

I've started doing this a couple of days ago, using an RSPduo and a dipole. On my first try got some very good reception from NOAA-19, did not expect that just from a simple dipole. It's fascinating to see an image of the earth from space as it is in the moment. At my location you can see the arctic on these images. Can't wait to try decoding LRPT.
Thank you for a very practical and useful video!...Successfully heard the International Space Station (the easy way) based on your previous video!!...Once again you’ve inspired me…so I’ll be chasing after some live weather satellite Images!!!
You could connect gpredict to sdrpp and let gpredict change sdrpp’s frequency automatically according to doppler shift .. well at least on linux dont know about windows or mac, how ever there should be a windows version of gpredict. Great tutorial btw!
Another great video. Easy to follow and understand. Gonna have to nerd out with my weather friends next time in the field. And to have it all fit in a laptop bag… amazing.
This is honestly one of my favourite channels. Your videos are always so full of amazing information and its really helped me get into SDR. Many thanks to you
Well explained, this video was very helpful for me. I started with this a few years ago, but then other interests came along. However, it's interesting to see that there's still the possibility to receive satellite images. This video is very useful to me.
This whole process was actually a lot more simple and low tech than I expected. Great video.
It's honestly one of the most entry level reception tasks and because it's space it's really cool too.
It's really easy to fool people.
@@garnet4846 Yes, just make a bunch of non-sense flattard videos and a bunch of dumb people will be fooled.

Awesome introduction to the topic. Well done! 👏 👍
Well explained, this video was very helpful for me. I started with this a few years ago, but then other interests came along. However, it's interesting to see that there's still the possibility to receive satellite images. This video is very useful to me.
