# waterfall2png
waterfall2png will take a satellite recording, such as from the Libre
Space Foundation's SatNOG network, and convert it into a PNG.

This script is just a few lines added to upstream's `satnogs-client`
`waterfall.py` to make it easier for command line processing.


# Use
If you don't already have satnogs-client installed,
install Python dependencies to your taste, such as:

```
sudo apt update
sudo apt install python3-pip
pip install --user matplotlib numpy
```

Change these two lines to your input data and output PNG:

```
# Change this to your input file name
datafile_path='receiving_waterfall_.dat'

# This is the output PNG filename:
figure_path='waterfall.png'
```

Then run:

```
./waterfall2png
```
