SMOG-1 pocket satellite reception how to

You can find all the Windows, Linux, Raspberry Pi based receiver software package here:

So far the “best guess” for the Kepler element data is here:

hint: for smogcli program you need to add -i 47939 ID for reception. Stay tuned for updated TLE elements, hope NORAD can do the radar measurements and fine tune the Kepler database.

Update 2021-02-28: 2021-022M TLE the best based on Peters doppler research:

Example from my RPi3 based receiver, with LNA4ALL and 7 element fixed Yagi:

Update1: very nice, strong SNR reception with my fixed 7 element Carant Yagi today:
