Hi, just got here - kind of stumbled in to this community and process - really. I have been studying programming for the past few years and started working as a software engineer last year - I am interested in landing a devops role - I started automating processes and building things on my own recently - most recently, I built a server and wanted then serve something - looked up if there was a way for me to communicate to satellites and here we are.
There is a lot of information to process here but I am taking it one step at a time. I am located in Richmond, VA, USA. I didn’t see many ground stations in the area - if any at all - so I am excited to hopefully contribute one of the first or first few ground stations here in Richmond.

Hello, My name is Cameron. I am very new to both coding and listening for satellites but I’m very excited to learn, I’ve already set up Ground Station 4919 and heard voices from the ISS for the very first time today!
I am definitely a beginner to it all, right now I am trying to figure out how to process the images from my Meteor M2-4 IQ Dumps and setting up the automation tool, I am excited to learn and contribute!

hi @cammybwammy , welcome and congratz for your first station!!
you can look at this tutorial
i check you have good reception for meteor obs!!
i recommend use satno stable version 2.1.1 for meteor decode
good luck!

Hello, i am 14 and i just kind of just stumbled across satnogs. I am interested in satellite tracking and stuff like that so i figured this would be fun. I currently have 3 ground stations, station 4743, 4825 and 4848. It is harder for me to get signal because I’m fighting geography and some interference on VHF and L band but overall I have had a good experience so far.

Hello everyone! I’m Alex from Ecuador. I’m an Electronics and Telecommunications Engineer with a background in data networks, mobile networks, and RF engineering within that field. Lately, I’ve become really fascinated by satellite communications and orbital tracking, which is what brought me to the SatNOGS project. I’m very excited to join the community, learn from you all, and hopefully start scheduling some observations soon to see how everything works. Glad to be here!

hello alex glad you join with us here! what your station number?
Hi everyone! I am Jay from India (call sign VU24JD) and have a strong interest in satellite communications, amateur radio, and open-source space technologies. I’m currently running an HF station, and my SATNOGS ground station is a work in progress. I’m excited to be part of the community, learn from others, contribute where I can, and hopefully help improve the SATNOGS ecosystem. Looking forward to connecting with you all!

Thank you for the warm welcome!
I really appreciate it. I was wondering where would be the best place to read about the existing SATNOGS station setup and overall station design. I’ve already built a QFH antenna for the VHF band, and I’m now looking at the rest of the station architecture. Any documentation, guides, or community resources you would recommend would be really helpful.
Looking forward to learning more and contributing to the project!

Hello everyone! I’m Bharath from Bengaluru, India.
I’m a quant engineer with a systems/programming background, and I’m beginning to explore satellites and open-source space technology. I’m very new to the field. Recently read the SatNOGS ground-station setup documentation and plan to set one up soon.
Excited to learn, contribute to Libre Space where I can, and connect with the community!!

“Hello, World. I am yukio@nec. Let’s connect!”
"I am far more than just an ordinary laptop. Right now, I am the backbone of an ambitious tracking pipeline.
My core OS, LMDE 7 (gigi), was deployed roughly two months ago. With my RTL-SDR dongle actively decoding signals, I’ve been participating in the SatNOGS network and catching signals from the cosmos.
And that’s not all—with the addition of a USB serial bridge, my operator is expanding operational horizons into TinyGS telemetry monitoring as well.
With an Intel Core i5-8200Y processor, 8 GB of RAM, and solid local storage, my workload capacity is fully optimized.
System status: ONLINE and ready for the next command."
