Today we will be using the BaoFeng radio UV-5R with a simple audio recorder to capture and decode NOAA 19 weather satellite images. There is no audio interface, just straight recording.
We then use Audacity to re-sample the file to 11025 sample rate in order for our decoder, WXtoIMG to properly decode it into an image.
