Hello,
In the gnuradio/gr-noaa/README file under usrp_rx_hrpt.py, there is a
comment that
reads as follows:
The present HRPT demodulator is only tested at decimation 16.The only other
valid decimation rates are 24 and 32, which may work, but with more bit errors.
No
other decimation
Hi Marcus,
Thanks. That explains it. Will try 5 MHz with our N200.
Cheers,

Hi Daniel,
that README refers to things of the past (when you specified a
decimation rather than the sampling rate you want), and USRP refered
to what we nowadays call the USRP1.
In the version of the usrp_rx_hrpt.grc, from which the .py gets
generated, the USRP source is just configured to
Hello,
I was wondering if someone can receive hrpt images from NOAA satellites or
similar, if so, could you help me with the implementation of the receiver?
There is not quite information about that format, so if you could help me I
would really appreciate it.
Hi Pablo,
Googling Noaa image format instantly yielded:

Hi Marcus,
APT is (analogue) FM BW ~35-40 kHz and HRPT BW 3 MHz digital.
Using a RTLSDR to receive APT can also be found here using windows
