Longer arms for you to reach your favourite sats.
Hi folks,
someone I was in contact with recently gave me an url to visit.
REMOTE RADIO
http://www.remotehams.com/ http://www.remotehams.com/Online-Radios
The site is in England, and has several radios online that you can adjust the tuning on.
I went and had a look and a play. Then had an idea to try out.
I tuned into a NOAA wxsat on the 137 MHz band when my sat tracker said it was over England.
I then started the WxSat program that turns the telemetry into images.
I had to tick a different box on the sound cards recording settings, and then it happened.
For the first time, I was receiving an image of Europe from a VHF NOAA sat, via the online radio.
Thanks to the folks that made this site possible, I love it.

Does someone have a resource to put your radio on your own web page, I have heard of packages to do this, but wonder if someone has tried this?
