FunCube
By HE-Arc ISIC
Reception of NOAA-18 polar orbiting weather satellite using the Funcube Dongle, an Arrow antenna and gqrx 1.9.197 SDR. The satellite is very strong, already at low elevations the SNR is better than 20dB. At the time of closest approach the signal is almost 40dB over the noise.
Gqrx is an experimental software defined radio receiver for Linux powered by GNU Radio and Qt, see http://www.oz9aec.net/index.php/gnu-radio/gqrx-sdr

Have fun with our cube that was developped as part of our Master course at the HES-SO in Switzerland.
