Gosh, I hope you ordered one of the Aliexpress Clifford HackRFs!

HackRF does have bias-t, but it won't power a Sawbird+ for instance.
Saveitforparts did test his discovery dish s band feed with his HackRF and it seemed to power it fine though.

Just got a good western pass of Aqua. The fire up north is, uh, quite big.
A huge thanks to Julia from the SatDump dev team for all of her work on the fire detection composites, looks like it's pretty spot on!
Images are True Color composites (ieq), Fire Detection, and #SatDump demod stats.
