As an aside for those of you who use the WX Sat app “WxtoImg” for decoding those birds it appears that the web site has gone dark so make sure you keep a clean copy squirreled away in case something happens to your main app file.

Yes, this is on a laptop. I have successfully received images on this laptop for a couple of years.

To get images from NOAA weather satellites I have been using an RTL-SDR with SDR# software and the WxtoImg decoding program. This has worked successfully for a couple of years. I use the VB virtual audio cable to connect SDR# to WxtoImg.

But about a month ago I had to reinstall SDR# as it wasn't working. I think it may have been due to an update in Windows 10. So, SDR# is working fine, but since the reinstall of SDR# I can no longer get viewable images in WxtoImg. The pictures look they have been through the shredder. I tried the slant correction and the resync as described in the Help section, but it didn't fix anything.

It looks like a sync problem, but if the resync doesn't fix it, I'm not sure what to try next.

I know these aren't amateur radio satellites, but I'm hoping there's at least a few of you out there who are downloading weather satellite pictures and can help me out.

All reasonable suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.
