I've tried to get some pictures of NOAA sats today, the conditions wasn't really good but anyway...
Here is my setup, on a high point of my town.
My talkie-walkie, is a Baofeng GT-3 MARK II, I'm using a 3.5mm stereo jack to 2.5mm stereo jack for recoding to my PC (the GT-3 mic entry is on 2.5..)
Closeup on my yagi, it's a dual band antenna 70cm 2 m 2+2 elements made of aluminium, perfect for portable operation :)
4,12dBd on 2m
5,4dBd on 70cm
Pigtail coaxial cable BNC male to N female with a SMA Female to N male adaptor:
Receiving wasn't really good today (as well as my manual tracking)

If you want to hear the sound of a weather satellite i've saved NOAA 18: https://soundcloud.com/temari/noaa-18-ch-1-4-northbound-30-w-at-2014-09-04-1602-utc
