Stoker, I have a KTI 12' dish and the mount of that puts this one to shame. With those bolts braking off I'd have concern that the welds could fail on the mount itself. If that mount is built anything like my Chinese office chairs I've went through, the base material cracks when it's welded...

This is a lot late to answer this question but with a 10' dish I have about 2 -3 dB of margin for the signal here in Southern IA. Works good even though the dish pole is just buried in the ground with no concrete. Even with the movement in the wind it works good on the DVB-S2 format. Reliably...

It's been 5 years WOW, since the last post here and more changes to come with the GOES R bird to launch. I am wondering if JerryTusday ever did get himself a NOAAPORT station set up and if anybody is watching this thread anymore. I still use NOAAPORT here for the time being.

Thanks for the info. Thanks for the info ParaclipseCKu. Also there are more products in GRLevel3 than shown in that txt file I posted, I will be updating that later. Time for the upgrade...

Thanks ParaclipseCKu It's job seems best at radar and satellite data, It has it's limits but this is where it's possibilities are big depending on if the code is open. I see this program capable of doing many things if some more time in put into it. I believe it can open GEMPAK files as well...

Hi All, NOAAPORT is still broadcasting in DVB-S format for now so no changes as of yet Jerry. But concering NOAAPORT data I found a wonderful program that can open gridded data, GRIB, Area format, GRLevel 3 and 2 radar. It runs in a java web enviromant. I used this software to open the...

An Update from here Wanted to chime in, I continue to use NOAAPORT here and the signal has remained stronger then when I started to receive it. Bolth the strength and quality bars mostly remain full, though the quality bar has dropped to about 3/4 of full. I have had no more interference...

Hi Jerry I don't have the background knowledge to operate a USRP, It would be quite a learning process. The Linux computer I have here does the GVAR, I can do small things with it but after that things get real fuzzy. Linux is a powerful operating system. I have contacted Patrik Tast before...

Hi Jerry, Sorry for the long delay. I have herd that software defined radio is what will be the radio of the future and that is already being done, Considering all the software in these current radios it is setting up for that. Some local guys (hams) were talking about this subject. Software...

The Second half Hi Swingbozo "EMWIN N" is not available off of DVB (to my knowage), though as Jerry stated the text products are available off DVB through NOAAPORT. EMWIN N is broadcast on the L band 1692.7 Mhz Off of the GOES East & West satellites. Want to ad, That with the install...

I'm back, after a time away Hi All, Sorry for the late replys but I have not had email updates on the form and have been busy here, so now for some catchup. First... Jerry That is one reason the USRP doesn't get a lot of attn. Because A lot of us don't understand it. Though those who have...

Hi Jerry, First to answer your question In about 3 weeks power will be reduced on SES1 (NOAAPORT) back to where it was before. Don't be hard on yourself, cause each day your learning, I didn't learn what I know overnight or in a couple of years and I am still learning. The 7' dish will...

Hi Jerry, As Phil has said If you only want to have NOAAPORT for that time fine, But after is another question. I'd recommend NOAAPORT on the 9' Dish and GOES west on the 7' You will get good results with bolth. I would HIGHLY doubt that SES1 will remain at these levels. Bummer........I...

NOAAPORT IS BACK And boy is it strong, Bolth sig. and quality bars are pegged!:eek: Jerry should be having no problems now. Tim

Hmm Interesting, I looked all over for that bulletin and only found it on storm2k form. They may have restored AWIPS data another way, In the form of fiberoptic land line I have seen no other messages about this. I go by here for bulletins http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/PS/SATS/messages.html...

An update, Just looked a NTSB's site and they also lost data around the time I mentioned.

Galaxy 15 disruptions? As ParaclipseCKu has said, I myself am getting good data here. Has Galaxy 15 caused any disruptions in NOAAPORT data as of lately? I right now have lost lock on NOAAPORT it started around 10:40 AM CST here, It has been an issue last week as well, It tends to last for...

Images...... GOES E 20Mhz Span.... Centered near LRIT This is the GOES East transponder output @ 20Mhz wide sweep. EMWIN 10 Mhz Span .....1692.7 Mhz This is the EMWIN-N broadcast off the GOES East spacecraft. LRIT 10 Mhz Span .....1691.0 Mhz This is the LRIT broadcast off the GOES East...

GVAR GoesVARiable It is the processed imager and sounder data coming off of the GOES spacecraft. All digital 1685.7 at 2.11 Mbps BPSK. There are no txt products on this transmission that I am aware of. Mabie the Header. Your picture shows 1691 Mhz , that is LRIT. At 1690.725 should be...

Hey Jerry, If your talking about GVAR (1685.7) You have to have a absolute Minimum of 8' With a good preamp ,I recommend 10' or you won't be able to get enough signal to be usable. Though that 4' dish will work fine for EMWIN, LRIT I will be watching your web site to see when you get...

I need to correct this from above Should read Tune your DVB receiver to 3956 Mhz Channel 2 (GOES) of NOAAPORT sends GOES imgs. Pid 102 The software as JerryTuesday has mentioned takes the binary data and turns it into JPG image. Here is a link to the satellite imgs available TIGE is GOES...

Ahh A crankup tower, Wasn't familiar with that term. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ OK, Hi TechGuru Considering your avatar your familiar with C band. So I will go straight to the point. To answer your question, Yes Here's how...

I understand now. Ya, having anything in the L.O.S. of the satellite could cause issues. I am one who perfers on a clear shot. Though I understand that for some that is not possible. When you refer to nesting, I assume it has something to do with securing/grounding the tower. It seems like...
