Most odd.2 hours ago a post on Sats uk is about running satdump.If I can get the last three brain neurons that I possess firing at the same time I may have a go at it.

My main interest is satellite scanning.Wxsat scanning is one of the projects on the satellite forum that I am a member of.Mrs Ponti and I are also keen weather watchers.My weather station is a Technoline 2816.MY site is on WOW RC Barnsley.

Just spotted this post I often scan NOAA 15,18 and 19.The only equipment required is a computer WXSAT and SDr Sharp software and an antenna.I made a Quadrifilla antenna with cunifer brake pipe.NOAA 15 has problems now.
Two scans today NOAA 18 and 19.
. The red cross is my location.

It went down to 0.7C last night here.The plant trays all went into the shed and conservatory They are getting a bit leggy they need to go into the ground.These cold nights keep turning up.It needs to stop raining a bit too.The ground needs to dry out and warm up. 0 C forcast for tonight. Will it be the last one ? I wouldn't bet on it.
