David,That's an interesting point, Ernst. I can see that is the start time, set a long time ago, was shifted by an hour you might expect it to make no difference to every five minutes. It would be good to confirm the behaviour but as it happens once a year it's a long time to wait! I've now seen this twice but the first time it was well into the morning and I just "fixed" the problem on the RAMdisk, and only after this morning's event did I recall our discussion about "sync across time zones" and try to sit down and work out what /might/ have happened. I'm more than 50% convinced. My own WXtrack software is in constant use for tracking Meteor-M N2 APT and works always in UTC internally, while the PC's presentation of time is wall-clock and shifted this morning. Passes from last night and this morning both appear correct. The DLL containing the internals of the tracking algorithm are available for use in a variety of languages - Delphi, VB5, C#, C, VB.net, Java, Windows Scripting: https://www.satsignal.eu/software/wxtrack.htm#SGP4 Cheers, David -- SatSignal Software - Quality software for you Web: https://www.satsignal.eu Email: david-taylor@...

David,Ernst, my previous reply may have been unclear. It's a "just once" "forever" job. I'll attach the settings for a typical repeated clean-out job (this one runs once every 15 minutes).

David,
the Windows scheduler always works in and shows wall clock time according to your timezone settings unless you set the switch "Synchronize accross timezones". It was my understanding that if you start once and repeat every say 5 minutes forever only the start time would be shifted by 1h when DST is set from on to off. Apparently a gap is introduced much later and I was wrong. That's why I always set my receivers to UTC. With MEZ and DST set I have e.g. the following problem: If I want to setup a schedule for a LEO satellite pass at 10:00 UTC in summertime I have to make a schedule 12:00 MEZ and set 'Synchronize accross timezones'. If I want to setup a schedule for a LEO satellite pass at 10:00 UTC in wintertime I have to make a schedule 11:00 MEZ and set 'Synchronize accross timezones'. If my PC runs under UTC I just schedule the LEO pass at 10:00 whether summer or winter or with and without 'Synchronize accross timezones'. Much easier. Cheers, Ernst

David,
has this job been scheduled daily at some start time + every 5 minutes (for that day) or has this job been scheduled just once in the past + every 5 minutes (forever ...)? Regards, Ernst

You can schedule it today (at any hour XX:29) and do not have to wait for 00:29Folks, If you are relying on something like TrimTree to keep RAMdisk size under control or to remove unwanted data, be sure to have "Synchronize across time zones" set! If not, the job will not run for almost an hour, and you may run out of RAMdisk (as I did this morning). For example, a job scheduled to run every 5 minutes: 01:58 - job runs - next run 02:03 Clock resets one hour 01:03 - job should run, but the next run isn't until 02:03 01:08 01:13 . . 01:58 02:03 - job runs. A whole hour is missed. In my case, the HVS-2 data is deleted shortly after processing, but now 1/14 of the data isn't deleted, that's more than 20 GB, and my RAMdisk is only 8 GB. Be sure to check: "Synchronize across time zones". Cheers, David -- SatSignal Software - Quality software for you Web: https://www.satsignal.eu Email: david-taylor@... Twitter: @gm8arv

Hi,
during the last few days my receiver Terra also captured the Medicane (Mediterranean Hurricane) that devastated Catania. See the Meteosat-10 frames and WEBM-Videos on Terra. The Medicane appears bottom right and is now again southbound. http://5.153.116.236:85 Cheers, Ernst

TBS 6903 setup
boaz.n@...
Hello,
After trying to follow step by step the manual of setting up the connection to EumetCast something is wrong. I am trying to connect with single LNB and single cable to the 6903 PCIe card and getting unlocked status with strong strength signal and zero quality . Attached the situation I am currently in. What should I check? How can this be fixed? Thanks. Boaz

I'm not sure if this has been discussed before - probably - but there appears to be an anomaly with (some?) GOES 17 WV channels?
Or it might be 'me?'
I don't take all GOES E and W channels on ABI Manager but GeoSatSignal requires channel B08 WV for false colour processing.
GOES 17's B08 channel is corrupted for a long time owing to possible sunlight intrusion into the sensor?
This does not happen with GOES 16.
Yes we know geostationary satellites have a problem when the sun is at the Earth's edge with light spill into the imager - but GOES 17 B08 and B10 appear to effected for many hours when the the Sun is rising and 'crossing from the east.'
This doesn't happen when the Sun is 'in the west.'
And it doesn't happen to GOES 16 B08 and B10.
The effect has cleared by the 16:30 UTC cycle.
Image 1 shows GOES 17 not effected with Sun W and GOES 16 with Sun E (not effected).
Image 2 GOES 17 at 13:00.
Image 3 GOES 17 still effected at 15:30
????
