It is a little utility to automate the reception of the APT signal transmitted by the low orbit Weather satellites. It will:
Set the receiver to the correct frequency just before the satellite pass (using a serial connection).
Record the audio signal during the pass. (Using the line in input of the sound card). Create overlay for pass using David Taylor's WXtrack.
Load the wav file into David's (registered version) of SatSignal.
It will also give you a central point for starting all other programs that you may need for the reception - audio editing - image editing.
