What kind of an antenna are you using????

Is it a circularly polarized one?????

I am coming in in the middle of this, but if it is the old GOES birds, I use a Discone, and it works very well.

Hi Simon,

did you have a chance to look into this. You thought you might have an idea what's going on.

Same result here.

Recorded full pass of NOAA 19 with V3 of the software. Using IC-R8600. When piping audio via VAC to WXtoImg getting only distorted output either live or recorded. Tried different settings in VAC, no changes. NOAA signal received with WFM, 40KHz.

Have switched back to SatPC32 with doppler and rotor control and use the Icom audio codec (usb).. Now images are clear.

Picture shows example with audio codec (usb):

John,

There’s an option in the console to take a screenshot – any chance you could use this? It’s a tad difficult to see the settings like this.

Can some kind sole give me the setup for receiving the NOAA satellites . The problem seems to be that the software won't see the signal sync. SDRconsole is tracking the signal ok. Setting is WFM. Is there a filter setting I need to change ??.
