Here's a great weather shot with a LOT of stations reporting in ..
This front is along the I-35 corridor in Central Texas.
Notice all the Lt. BLue " WX " stations inline with the coming front..
2nd pic weather details only, all other data filtered out of display..

The little yellow house between the front and Houston is mine....

I have uploaded the "soundmodem" extension to the repository.

It is a "software" version of a TNC, used to mod/demod radio
signals for digital communications.

It uses your sound card as the tool to decode the data from the
audio stream.

This will allow you to decode and observe traffic from the various
APRS networks thruout your area, as well as any ISS passes,
using only a scanner or receiver as a source..

No license required to listen, see, and observe..

You licensed ops can also use the soundmodem to get
"On The Map" using APRS and most any transceiver.
It can also be used for other modes, PSK31, CW, as well
as chasing satellites ..

From the looks of the maps, they were riding "train" style right over you..
Endless thin lines of storms continuing to move NE in your direction..

We got some rain, but very little else..
Cooler Tomorrow and Wednesday !! Yeah!

The power company will just have to take the hit,
and leave a lil' CASH in my pocket come next month's light bill.

It's paybacks for all the 90+ temps here in October..
