What is WinterHill?
Posted: Wed Mar 24, 2021 1:56 pm
WinterHill is a 4 channel DATV DVB-S/DVB-S2 receiver.
It uses the BATC Advanced DATV Receiver PCB and runs on a Raspberry Pi4, using 2 PIC microcontrollers rather than FT2232H modules to interface to 2 NIMs (network interface module - the 'tin can').
Received transport streams can be displayed on the RPi4, a PC on the local network, or anywhere on the internet.
