Hacking the TV tuner and making DIY antena to recieve weather images from satellites (NOAA)

[@fubarsnafu4994]

NOAA = Noah as in the ark.. Get it. Old inside joke.. Been playing with radio and such for over 40 years. Thank you for the video. Nice to see people still DIY and hacking at home✌

[@Leeki85]

Thanks for reminding me about those cheap SDR tuners. I wanted to get one few years ago, but totally forgot about it. Already ordered one. They have many cool uses.

[@skillful_DIY_fan]

Yes they caould be use for many other things. I was astonished by SDR.

[@TheRealKitWalker]

Amazing! Highly inspiring!! I'm sure your son must be hooked to it. Such things build up the natural curiosity, I'm sure he's going to be a scientist in future. Keep motivating. 😊👍👏👏

[@daghanabi]

the sattelites sound for some reason makes me relaxed

[@skillful_DIY_fan]

yes, the sound is relaxing :)

[@flawio]

uhh! Did this yesterday, started listening to a really weird satellite now there is two black suvs parked in front of my house. help?

[@b4rt3kk23]

Thats the topic of the next tutorial.

[@rachelslur8729]

Receiving a radio signal could not have revealed your location. Just like when you listen to FM radio, the station can't know if you're listening. I know you joked, just saying...

[@root8009]

FBI! open the door!

[@f4zepacino650]

root when you own a fucking SATCOM you become the FBI

Super pomysł, na pewno spróbuję :)

[@skillful_DIY_fan]

Spróbuj, spróbuj, warto. Fajne uczycie, jak uda CI sie odebrać aktualne zdjecie pogodowe. Polecam też spróbować odebrać fotki z meteora. Mi sie wprawdzie udało, ale po kilku próbach. Mają znacznie lepszą jakosć, niż te z NOAA.

[@P4J4K]

[@sochineze]

hey this is amazing! can you brief me a little more on the antenna and connectors? like what connector do i need to have for the SDR to connect with the antenna and why is the antenna setup in that way?

[@SergioMontini]

Thanks for sharing it with us, cheers!

You should try this, it's really addicting

[@skillful_DIY_fan]

Dziękuję ;) Ten projekt faktycznie był bardzo fajny i zajął nam czas na dluuuugie godziny.

[@krysieks]

You should use antenna balloon as you go straight from 75Ohm coax to symmetrical dipole (assuming 300Ohms)

[@rachelslur8729]

A balloon would require a second radio to transmit back to you. Else you're gonna visit another country or cruise the ocean to pickup footage from your crashed baloon.

[@crypto.7562]

@@rachelslur8729 It would have to be high enough to reach your footprint, like geostationary high which is impossible for weather ballons, so unless you launch a satelitte into orbir or make a ballon that won't pop past the strasphere(or higher) it won't work (unless it is in close range)

[@marcinukasik6395]

Czy transmisja całej mapy (całego zdjęcia) zajmuje te około 10 minut i trzeba nagrać całą transmisję, czy może dane są przesyłane kilkukrotnie i wystarczy tylko fragment transmisji?

[@skillful_DIY_fan]

Hm.. z moich doświadczeń wynika, że nie trzeba wyłapać całej transmisji. Trudno jednak założyć, gdzie jest początek, dlatego nagrywałem całość

[@marekmosat7176]

so f-ing cool, good work

[@skillful_DIY_fan]

yes yes, cool and, believe it gives a lot of fun to do such thing

[@jeduthunoosthuis5794]

This dad is amazing.

[@alexlandherr]

Thank you for the video, it will probably help me too. I have an antenna kit instead of a home built one.

[@poland-nosteamserver6378]

Can you automate this ? Receivers are surely not recording signals to audacity and then reading it in a special program...

[@poland-nosteamserver6378]

a way to watch the images like browsing through youtube would be nice

[@skillful_DIY_fan]

It is possible to make automation of this process. There are people which are doing it on linux using GNU radio diagrams and couple programs, but I think it is also possible on Windows. I saw such sollution on Reddit: www.reddit.com/r/RTLSDR/comments/5iuzbl/fully_automated_raspberry_pi_noaa_satellite/

[@Miestwin]

Your move flat-earthers.

[@Miestwin]

No, because of few reasons. 1. Ballons rapture if they go too high. At around 30km the air pressure is too low and they rapture. 2. You can't make a balloon fly on the straight line like satellites do. Even a small blimp wouldn't be able to achieve it. 3. You can calculate how high they are based on the signal latency and triangulation. Bonus: If they were on the balloons you would be able to see them with simple binoculars, and there are thousands of satellites, so you would be able to see at least few avery day, no matter where you live.

[@rachelslur8729]

Ballons are unpredictable due to voulnarability from wind. Satellites orbit above the atmosphere. I guess you could use a rc plane.

Hi. You need a normal antenna cable and then you need a coaxial to mcx for connect the antenna to the sdr and computer.

[@rgindians]

Is this true????!!!! No idea!!

[@skillful_DIY_fan]

+Kamal Raj yes, it's really true and easy to make. It also generates lot of fun. Moreover with sdr usb device you can much more. Just google about it

[@crypto.7562]

yes this IS true

[@crypto.7562]

@@skillful_DIY_fan goes 16 also is a lot of fun you can stare at the pics 4 hours. Goes 16 also has a water vapor band, but for one thing goes 16 is on the l-band. You have to have a tuned paroblic grid antenna(looks like a satelitte dish) and you have to have an lna. You also have to be RIGHT ON when it comes to pointing your dish. Or just check my website for the pics: count.topcat.io/
