Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.

Re: [ldm-users] Bug in Novra S-300 receiver, and a request

Thanks, Brendon! One telling piece of info today: I have been getting signal readings around -45 dBm over the last few days since I disconnected my coax from a pass-through UPS. Again, I have a 3.7 meter dish, a Norsat 3120 LNB, and RG-11 coax direct to my Novra, and look what *light* rain moving in did to my signal this morning, west of Chicago:

Link budget much? :-( That pretty much tells the tale why we're having so many reception issues, in part. The signal is barely strong enough to work with good weather...maybe. A big maybe. More power, Scotty!
