This will interest those that have a Satellite Dish (TVRO)
Over the weekend I was successful in copying wefax pictures (S3 ch17 @1.88 and
1.93MHz) and Press Photos on K2.
The demodulator and software is made by SOFTWARE SYSTEMS
CONSULTING, called WEFAX/GOES. It consists of a piece of hardware that
connects to the end of an RS232 cable. The hardware has two cables with 1/8th
plugs. One for HF fax and the other for VHF. This plugs into the ext. speaker
jack.
I connected the descrambler output port of my receiver which is a 0-8MHz video
output port to the rf input port of a shortwave receiver that has an
FM mode and tuned in the freq range of 1.88MHz,1.93MHz (S3) and 4.020MHz (K2).
Pictures looked great! Has anyone else tried this using a TVRO??
