Here's a Video of Metop capture process using the fabric folding parabolic antenna, really great signal and locks on for a big pass. It is much easier to capture images than using a traditional big old metal satellite dish which is heavy and difficult to maneuver, witht the fabric parabolic antenna my arm does not ache and I am able to focus more on directional accuracy and also the phone screen giving signal strength feedback:
Hi there, just a short post for some images I have captured using my Fabric Antenna. So far I have had success with:
Inmarsat 1.5Ghz
Meteor HRPT
NOAA HRPT
METOP AHRPT
S-Band HRPT
X-Band QO100
S-Band QO100
I have some other success with other satellites (Globalsat etc) which I don't feel I am ready to share just yet. Anyway here is my antenna invention, i'm very proud of it, and it's great seeing all the diverse supporters who have bought one from me & seeing other people figure out new ways to use conductive fabric for antenna creations.
Here are the images
1) NOAA HRPT (tree cover in my area affects the most northern orbit)
2) METEOR HRPT (Overall a nice big capture all the way down to africa and the Azores in the Atlantic)
3) METOP AHRPT (Capturing & processing this big Metop 6Mbps file using just my mobile phone was so pleasing to see it all work out who knew phones could process like a desktop)
