[amsat-bb] Weather sat imaging

[skristof at etczone.com]

Well, I reloaded SDR# and VB audio virtual cable. The weather sat image
is still shredded horizontally. I checked the website for WxtoImg and it
is blank. 

Does anyone know of any other software for decoding and displaying
weather satellite images? 

Any other suggestions on getting this fixed will be appreciated.

I had it all running fine with the connection from the microphone jack out of my radio then all of a sudden one day it was breaking images. I came to find out that somehow the input got switched to the microphone and it was picking up the sound from the speaker through the microphone.
