- | This is the home of what will hopefully become a useful club resource for people wanting to do some VHF satellite reception of either NOAA APT signals or the LRPT signal from the Russian meteor satellites. There’s no need to reinvent the wheel as plenty has been written before on this subject. Instead there will be links to other places around the Internet, but also some learned wisdom and tips from OARC members. | + | This is the home of what will hopefully become a useful club resource for people wanting to do some VHF satellite reception of either NOAA APT signals or the LRPT signal from the Russian meteor satellites.

- | VHF satellite work is the easiest satellite reception work to get into. If you get the bug after doing this consider moving up to L-band HRPT reception, which should doable with a modest antenna. The next step up from that is to geostationary satellites, where you'll be needing amplifiers, filters, and a whole lot of kit. There are a few places on the internet that specialise in this kind of thing. | + | VHF satellite work is the easiest satellite reception work to get into.
