I made a simple antenna, used cheap TV Tuner and with such hardware controlled via some software I was able to pick satellite signals/images
There are a lot of satellites above our heads. Did You know, that using only Your computer, TV Tuner and simple DIY antena You could recieve the transmissions from them ? For example real time pictures of earth. I'll show You how.
You will need:
- 2 wires (could be from ordinary electrical cable)
- some plywood or wood for an antena
- coaxial cable (TV cable)
- computer (Windows/Mac/Linux)
I made a video about this project. It contains the whole instructions on how to recieve the signal from NOAA satellites.
