The software supports recording, decoding, editing, and viewing on most versions of Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X. I tried a couple of different libraries, but eventually settled with the library from which works well with my display.WXtoImg is a fully automated APT and WEFAX weather satellite (WXsat) decoder. The I2C display is a generic display, purchased from eBay, and uses the PCF8574 I2C receiver IC. There's two sketches, the GPS clock itself, and a simple test receiver sketch to check everything's working as it should. The GPS module will be configured by the sketch itself, to 200mS refresh rate. I've added a 4x20 LCD display, with I2C piggyback interface board, and the u-blox GPS module we've used in the GPS logger.

I'll be re-using the code from the quick and dirty 7-segment GPS clock here, and some of the code for the transmit function from the dehumidifier project. The transmitter will be triggered randomly, at least once every 24 hours, or by a push button connected to pin 12. The idea is to have a master clock, GPS locked with built in 433 MHz transmitter, which will send an accurate time signal to the other clocks to bring them into sync.
Wxtoimg license upgrade#
I also wish to upgrade the Astronomical clock project, as the DS1307 often drifts about, losing and gaining seconds as it feel like it. I've got a few clock projects in the back of my mind, and this is a bit of an aside to them all. It's drawing about 165mA at that voltage, so a supply is not too challenging! It seems to want about 6.5 VDC to operate, and has even remembered the settings it had before the power supply failed. I removed the transformer, and connected the workshop power supply between the end of the rectifier diode, and ground. I thought I'd remove the ghastly existing "switched-mode" blocking oscillator, and replace it with something. It looks as though the insulation had failed on the transformer, and destroyed the semi-conductors in the drive-side of the supply.
I opened it up and expected to find a mass of blackened bits, but no. lord knows what would have happened if it had tried to short out the mains without the protection of a fuse. (If you have one of these awful modulators, time to stop using it!) Damned glad I fitted one. "It's bound to be the modulator" I thought.

Well, settling down for an afternoon of vintage TV fun, I switched the video rack on. I wrote about it here. Please take a moment to read this, if you haven't seen it before.

Sadly I didn't notice the Raspberry Pi had moved to an odd angle before the epoxy set :(. The Raspberry Pi, Bias T (getting it's 5 volt supply from the raspberry Pi itself), and the SDR receiver are all mounted up in a small case.
