BTW, the (newish) gr-noaa component in GNU Radio can receive and
demodulate the AVHRR/HRPT 1.1 km/pixel telemetry from NOAA POES
spacecraft. There is a crude Matlab/Octave rasterizer script to turn
the telemetry into B&W PNG files for each imaging channel, or the output
can be read directly into a commercial HRPT rendering program like
HRPTreader for more sophisticated false color image generation.
