Example

Couldn't do without it. Satphoto is current pos. of hurricane Chris 2006; drawing 24 hr forecast.

p.s. these are downloaded from winlink using a pactor modem so perfect quality. If you use a weatherfax receiver instead, you get some noise but it's cheaper as you don't need a transceiver nor the pactor modem.

These are just two of 13 images you receive every 6 hours from New Orleans.

cheers,
Nick.
