Thanks for the update! I’ve been trying over and over using different gain values but still get no images. I will try your guide once it’s done. Thanks again.

Did a fresh install using your guide. Got this on the log for Observation 13479456. Got waterfall and audio uploaded but no image yet. I’m going to keep trying until I get it!
I see the 0 mpdu’s returned, that is mentioned above, can we check the meteor.sh has the additional line meteor_demod --batch --quiet -O 8 -f 128 -s 160000 -r 7200 -m oqpsk --bps 16 /tmp/iq - |
meteor_decode --diff -a 65,65,64 -o “$image” - which from the posts above forces the correct setngs for the decode. I mut admit Its not the greatest satellite signal wise, even an 80 degree passed for me here in UK. but I’ve had a few semi sucessful pictures !
OK I missed calling the meteor.sh script at the end of the observation, I’ve now updated station.env and updated the tutorial. I’ve just gone and installed it on 64bit raspian (with desktop) and everything seems to work. Makers eXperimenters and Operators: Build Satnogs on Raspberry Pi and decode Meteor M2-3 and M2-4 images
