Im not sure how this thread had ended up in the "Whats on listings" section but Ive moved it back to SDR Radio!

I wondered where it had gone I had to search satdump to find it.

Im not sure how this thread had anded up in the "Whats on listings" section but Ive moved it back to SDR Radio!

Whoops that would be me, I moved some new Eurovision Song Contest related threads from Fringe Reception to What's On Listings and must have selected this one as well, fat fingers and all that

 

[Analoguesat]

Oops - never mind, we have all done it & no harm done

This is an unusual scan I don't usually get anything above the bottom of Norway in fact it is the best that I have had from M2-3 for a long time.M2-3 10.15 EL 71.49.

Another good one today.M2.4 this time M 2.4 14.59 EL48.29.

OK something funny going on, I had a couple of posts after Analoguesat's on the 10'th (11-15 and 16) and they are gone, what happened to them???

 

[Analoguesat]

Odd - I cant see anything deleted within the thread itself - mods normally "soft delete"stuff - (that makes them visible to staff but not to members).

 

[Terryl]

Thats strange.....I will look in my history file (online history) and see whats up.

 

[Terryl]

Now I'm confused, I don't even see them in my on-line history file, I know I did them but where did they go??

Well no problem, it may be my old brain acting up again.

So here they are again.

This one from Meteor M2-4 on the 15th.


And this one from NOAA 18 on the 16th.



On this one you can see the Bomb Cyclone forming (black smudge in the middle left side) that's going to hit Northern California and Oregon, later today through tomorrow.

Expecting 5 to 8 inches of rain in one day, I might get some also but not as much.

 

[Terryl]

Well I couldn't get a decent download of the cyclone, but here is one after it's through the interior. From NOAA 18

And you can see the so called ""Atmospheric River"" that's going to hit my area tonight through tomorrow, I have my sand bags ready..



The big blob of white is almost on top of my location.

Getting ready for round two....This one from M2-3.



An inch of rain at my place in 6 hours.

northbound pass, 51 degrees maximum elevation east.
Meteor M2-3

Storm Bert clearly visible west of Scotland

 

[Terryl]

Now it looks like Southern California is going to be clobbered, I might get some out of it too.

This one from Meteor M2-4

 

[Terryl]

Anyone download the SatDump update ?

I did and don't see any improvements.

 

[pontiend]

I have not been getting many good scans lately.Most have been too far East or West and a bit on the low side.
This one was only EL38.59 I expected nothing.M2-4 14.57 EL 38.59

 

[Terryl]

I'm in the same boat as you, too many co-located birds on the passes, getting junk.

One good thing I've seen in the new update is that they fixed the TLE update locations.

Meteor M2-3 7/12/24 0959utc pass

southbound, 78 degree maximum elevation to the east

The centre of Storm Darraugh that has been causing havoc all over the UK today is over the North Sea just of the east coast of England.

 

[Terryl]

Finally a good pass on M2-3 this morning, (actually the best yet) you can see the whole West coast today, all the way from Canada to the Baha peninsula.
