Which were the satellites and how did I figure out when they were overhead?
#RTL SDR WXTOIMG SOFTWARE#
How did I get the software and configure it? What kind of antenna did I absolutely need? What images were being broadcast and how? My initial research led to lots of confusing information on many different topics. I forget where I learned that you could do that, but it sounded so cool I knew I wanted to try.Īround 2 years ago, I finally succeeded in getting images from the NOAA APT weather satellites, but I hadn’t gotten around writing up how I did that until now. It had been a dream of mine for a while to receive images from space. Pictures from Space: a n00b's guide to receiving images from NOAA weather satellites

This is a full sized ATX computer case you can laser cut (and probably cut using a CNC but I don’t have one of those) I hope it proves useful as a template for further customization.Īdding extra art work to be etched into the front/side/top with a laser should be really easy to do. You can download all the files here from this blog, but I’ve also uploaded the design to github and thingiverse for… marketing/posterity. Much to my dissapointment, I couldn’t find any! This all came about because I needed a computer case (for a computer) and I went looking online to see if anyone had made one that could be cut on a laser cutter. Presenting: LACC Lasercut ATX Computer case I’ve been working on this project for over a year now, but I can finally share it comfortably.
