The following stuff were used to decode the APT signals from various NOAA satellites,
- RTL-SDR
 - QFH Antenna tuned to 137 Mhz
 - 1 Mhz - 3 Ghz Wideband LNA
 - RPi for handling the exquisiteness of RTL-SDR
 - And a dumb PC for decoding the APT signals
 
Attempt 1: NOAA-19 at 24/05/2018 1941
Even I'm not sure of what this image is supposed to mean :P

Attempt 2: NOAA-19 at 25/05/2018 0400
The APT signal was too noisy despite using LNA, but the decoder managed to get a pretty good image.

Attempt 3: NOAA-19 at 25/05/2018 1640
Third time's the charm and finally an image that I'm proud of xD

Attempt 4: NOAA-18 at 25/05/2018 1720
A little noisy, but WXtoIMG managed to figure out the pass and build an overlay

Attempt 5: NOAA-19 at 27/05/2018 0512
Captured the APT signals of satellite pass completely with noise at both start and end, which decodes to this beautiful piece of image
