Title : Sanchez Updates: Combine Weather Images from GK-2A,
Himawari-8, GOES 16/17 Satellites into one Composite Image

Content :  Back in August  we posted  about the release of  Sanchez
, a tool originally designed to apply a color underlay image to
grayscale infrared images received from geostationary weather
satellites such as GOES 16/17, Himawari-8 and GK-2K. The tool has
recently been updated with some very nice new features. 

Title : Comparing the KiwiSDR Against the RaspberrySDR Clone

Content :  The  KiwiSDR  is a 14-bit wideband RX only HF SDR which
has up to 32 MHz of bandwidth, so it can receive the entire 10 kHz -
30 MHz spectrum all at once. Notably, the KiwiSDR does not connect to
a PC directly, rather it is a cape (add on board) for the Beaglebone
single board computing platform which similar to a Raspberry Pi. With
most of the DSP processing done on the KiwiSDR's onboard FPGA, the
Beaglebone serves a custom OpenWebRX browser interface which can be
accessed over a network connection from anywhere in the world. If
you're interested our  initial KiwiSDR review from 2017 is here . 

Title : TechMinds: The Langstone Project – SDR Transceiver
with PlutoSDR

Content :  Over on his YouTube channel Tech Minds has uploaded
a video introducing and demonstrating the Langstone Project.
Langstone is a standalone homebrew SDR transceiver project  by Colin
Durbridge (G4EML) which at its most basic implementation is based
on an Adalm PlutoSDR, Raspberry Pi 4 and 7" LCD touchscreen.  

Title : Decoder for Geostationary Elektro-L Weather Satellites
Released

Content :  Elektro-L is a range of Russian geostationary weather
satellites. Elektro-L1 and L2 were launched in 2011 and 2015
respectively, and Elektro-L3 was launched more recently in December
2019. Currently only Elektro-L2 and L3 are in operation. Like it's
NOAA GOES, Himawari and GK-2A cousins, Elektro-L satellites beam back
full disk images of the entire earth.  Elektro-L2 is positioned to
cover South America, Africa and Europe, whilst Elektro-L3 covers
the East of Africa, Eastern Europe, Russia, Middle East, Asia and
the West of Australia. 

Title : John’s Windows 10 NOAA Weather Satellite Software
Guide for RTL-SDR

Content :  Thank you to John First for submitting his guide all
about the setup and use of the software required to  receive NOAA
weather satellite images on Windows 10 (pdf file)  with an RTL-SDR
dongle. John's guide covers the use of SDR# for receiving the
signal, WXtoIMG for decoding the signal, and Orbitron for tracking
the satellite and automatically tuning SDR# when a satellite is in
range. 

Title : Introducing the Radio Resilience Competition

Content :  Thank you to Matt Knight for submitting news about
the Radio Resilience Competition which is all about finding ways
to building the best wireless PHY layer via SDR. Anyone around
the world can participate from the comfort of their own home,
as the competition is run entirely via a GNU Radio RF simulator
system. Matt writes: 

Title : The SETI Institute and GNU Radio Join Forces

Content :  The institute for the  Search for Extraterrestrial
Intelligence (SETI) and GNU Radio are joining forces . SETI are an
organization that uses radio telescopes to search for radio signals
that may have been generated by extraterrestrial intelligence. As
part of a transition from proprietary hardware to cheaper more
capable off the shelf hardware such as USRP SDRs and GPU processors,
SETI are beginning to make more use of the open source GNU Radio
DSP processing suite. The use of GNU Radio will also allow other
researchers and hobbyists at home to possibly help with their own
analysis. 

Title : Testing Sharp Slicer: Multiple Spectrum Slices via SDR#
with an Airspy SDR

Content :  Youssef the author of SDR# has  recently released an
update  which adds a feature called "Sharp Slicer". This feature
allows Airspy SDR users to open multiple instances of SDR#, each able
to tune to a seperate signal within the currently tuned frequency
range of the SDR. This is somewhat similar to the old  multi-VFO
plugin from rtl-sdr.ru , however the advantage of Slicer is that you
can have seperate spectrum and waterfall graphs for each signal. This
could be especially useful for monitoring multiple narrowband HF
modes with an Airspy HF+ Discovery.
