Meteor 2-1 APT images

 

This is a small collection of images which I received in June 1998 from the Russian polar orbiting weather satellite Meteor 2-1. All pictures were received using a home-built FM receiver based on a kit from Holger Eckardt DF2FQ (shown on the picture to the right). With this receiver and a 2m X-Quad antenna I received the automatic picture (APT) transmissions and decoded them using the sound card of my PC. The complete station was running fully automated and was controlled by a PC. The pictures are sorted by date of reception. Please click on the icons to load the full scale pictures which are up to 1 MB large.
