Anything to do with MSG I'd have thought, hardware, software whether djt or other, info. Then no need to send same msg to several groups. Guy

Hi crowd ;) Me too :) It seems I was the first to enlist this morning. Wow. My MSG frontend is in the make. From the MSG official site, I understand that it was originally intended to use the new bird

snip Hello David and Ulli It is interesting to wonder why the DVB HotBird transmission was not originally planned. I suppose that the idea of doing it this way was not even thought about, yet the cost

not originally planned. I suppose that the idea of doing it this way was not even thought about, yet the cost implications for the user are the difference between receiving it and not receiving it. No

David, true enough, for us lucky ones that live in the footprint of Hotbird. I have good result with a 40cm dish (when it's not windy or rainy!) The C-band setup is definitely much more expensive that

Essentially, the NOAA polar orbiters provide digital (h.r.p.t.) telemetry even if (as must be the case) the original optical image is sampled digitally for coding and transmission. I would think of PD

Lawrence, I would try to see if a 1.8m dish would be enough to receive MSG-1 in C-band from Atlantic Bird, if I were you. Just pure curiosity, as I think that the data is an exact bit dump of the HotB

Given the ability of the HRV scanner to look at two different windows during its scan - with separate east-west starting points for the upper and lower segments - how would you like to see the scan ma

Can we have a (sensible) choice Guy

I notice that after closing down MSG DM, settings such as histogram equalise are not retained. I suspect that I tend to use the same settings for most channels - could we save these at close down? reg

4, it somewhere? This is off-topic - please take this to the SatSignal group. Thanks, David

Will MSG-1 have eclipse periods like other geostationary satellites, when there is not enough power to keep the electronics fully running? I am presuming so, but have seen no announcement as yet. I al
