Observation 13713563: NOAA 19 (33591)

Regarding Observation 13713563 … whats the failure reason?

Hi @lanzo and welcome in the community!

It is marked as failed as the station didn’t upload any artifacts (observation results like waterfall/audio/data). This may caused by satnogs-client crashing or something else.

The best way to debug this is to follow the troubleshooting guide and check the logs to see if there is an error.

Thank you :slight_smile:

hi lanzo, please check your station config

it should be:

look at satnogs_antenna variable, it should be:


SATNOGS_ANTENNA=RX

Thanks bali:) i did that and finally got my first signal. Appreciate it.

DId by any chance you also check the gain ? SatNOGS Network - Observation 13725717 it’s automatically vetted as good cause the system thinks there was some kind of data available, but I notice your gain is (was ?) not set if I read the metadata right ?

Oh yeah, just set it. Thanks!

Looks much better

To disappoint you a bit, the NOAA’s are no longer transmitting APT in 137 MHz for half a year now.

Oh my god😭 it’s my first time using satnogs, what do u suggest me to do? Best option atp?

There are no APT satellites left. If you need to receive weather satellite images the best bet would be to check if / how you can decode the Meteor satellites, for which I think 2 are still operational in 137 MHz

ugh none are giving me any signals. could u check my observations? sorry i’m new and its for a project. thanks btw

Looking at the meta data, I am surprised it is working at all

soapy-rx-device: "RTLSDR",
samp-rate-rx: "2.048e+06",

This should be

soapy-rx-device: "driver=rtlsdr",
samp-rate-rx: "2.048e6",

thanks boss, trying again:) also which transmiter and satellite would u recommend for my 137MHz

Run this query and you will see successful METEOR M2-4 observations.

These including frequency and mode.
