Full Disk Images of Earth from Goes-17

I found I was able to set the direction of the antenna approximately using the compass and tilt sensor on my iPhone, then fine-tune the output by looking at the error rate output of goesrecv. :

Once you are receiving the signal from the satellite with a steady error rate that is less than 500, you can try to process some of the images. This is what the output of goesproc looks like:

Here are a few of the images and videos I’ve collected from GOES-17:

Here are a few notes and tips which didn’t fit into the main post but I think may be useful:
